8 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, Sept. 13, 1983 Three windows brighten the large, but cozy dining room Century home on 2 acres a hobby farmer's dream From top to bottom it's a hobby farmer's dream come true. Located on Highway number 12, just two and a half short miles south of Port Perry, this century home boasts a tree-lined driveway leading into two and a third scenic acres of property. Two small barns will beckon the equestrian buff. They're set up with four stalls and come complete with hydro and a fenced-in paddock, western-style. Built in 1905, the stately white house con- tains 11 rooms, including a sunny Florida room, an elegant foyer featuring a curved stairway carved out of finest wood, and a roomy, coun- try kitchen. Tucked neatly away on the main floor are several little rooms. Besides the large, tasteful- ly decorated dining room is a miniature parlour, perfect for a study or small library. There's also a huge formal living room with a smaller sitting room adjoining. The kitchen (loaded with cupboard space and two long counters) is next door to a recently build addi- tion, a comfortable family room with a brass- front airtight woodburning stove, as its centerpiece. The upstairs is reserved for five bedrooms, including the master which features large win- dows facing south. The bathroom, a room near- ly as big as the living room, houses an old- fashioned bathtub and pedestal sink, 'both in keeping with the home's country feeling. Extra features include beautiful wood trim in nearly all rooms, antique light fixtures, oak hardwood floors and a secret back staircase connecting the upstair's hall with the kitchen. This home is a must-see, a perfect spot for antique lovers or anyone with a yen for beautiful old homes in great condition. All for only $129,900. Call Country Lane Realty at 985-7351 for details.
