No passer-by would suspect that 519 Mississauga Street was built C1818. Steeped in history it once was known as "The Inn of the Rising Sun" serving grub and grog to weary travelers passing along the notoriously muddy Black Swamp Road. More recently the current owner welcomed guests to a one-bedroom B&B accommodation. Carefully restored and well maintained the home retains many of its historic architectural elements artfully blended with contemporary amenities to create a residence with one foot in the past the other in the present. Off the reception foyer is the formal living room with its cozy wood-burning fireplace and library built-ins. In the relaxed country-style kitchen/diner you'll find ample cupboard and counter space, a practical butcher-block island, and room for family dining too. Next to the kitchen with walkout to the private, fenced patio and secluded park-like back yard is the sun-filled morning/family room. Off the upper level landing you will find a spacious bed/sitting room, the second bedroom with built-in wardrobe along with the 4-piece bath with custom vanity, hall storage too. There is both inside and private outside access to the two room granny flat with its lounge/living room, adjoining powder room plus bedroom with full en-suite; it is perfectly integrated into the home and would be ideal for extended family, an in-home professional office or studio. The full, unfinished basement has an additional 4-piece bath (in need of revitalization) and with flexible access, offers potential added living space finished to your family requirements. There is a detached oversize garage which has been used as a workshop and to which is attached a garden shed. The home is located stones-throw away from the Community Centre, convenience shopping and community services, a casual stroll to Queen Street and the heart of Old Town. Here is your opportunity to acquire one of Niagara's iconic residences and to write the next chapter in its checkered history.
