Whether you are looking for one of the largest residential lots in Exeter, or one of the town's Historic Gidley family homes, or perhaps an opportunity to develop the property for investment purposes, you need to take a look. Built by one of Exeter's founding families on an almost 1-acre lot on picturesque William St, this unique property is being offered for the first time in several decades. The full 2-storey home boasts four bedrooms (potential for a fifth) and 2 bathrooms, one on each floor. The main floor is graced by a large kitchen and dining area with ample updated cabinetry. A spacious 3-piece updated bathroom with a large walk-in shower and laundry area is practically located, with additional direct stair access to the upper level. The generous front foyer showcases the home's character with the original spiral staircase and intricate trim detail. The entryway then leads into the large formal living room, complete with French doors and a gas fireplace. The large adjoining living room off the kitchen was originally used as a generous formal dining room. To round off the main floor, you'll find a cozy front den that could serve well as a home office. A 20' x 15' attached garage is joined to the house by a back entrance breezeway. The huge back and side yards are shaded with large mature trees, complementing this century gem, with a large fenced area ideal for pets. Well located in Exeter, and walkable to downtown amenities. Exeter is a half hour from North London, and a quick drive to the beautiful beaches of Lake Huron. This stunning century gem is ready for you to make your own.
