A Home With a Story to Tell. Perched on the hill in historic College Heights, this beautiful century home overlooks Port Arthur and offers a setting as special as the home itself. From the circular driveway and stone-lined staircase to the light-filled rooms and lake views, there is a sense of history here that is felt the moment you arrive.The welcoming front foyer opens to a spacious living room with hardwood floors, a large bay window and gas fireplace, with a cozy den or office tucked at the back. A convenient main-floor half bath and space for a Murphy bed make this area ideal for visiting guests. Across the foyer is the large dining room with high ceilings and hardwood floors, perfect for gathering family and friends. At the back, the kitchen features a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, skylight, abundant cabinetry and a large pantry with mainfloor laundry. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a four-piece bath. The front bedrooms enjoy beautiful lake and city views, while the primary bedroom offers a walkout to its own balcony - a peaceful spot to enjoy your morning coffee or take in the changing seasons. Outside, the terraced backyard offers multiple areas to enjoy the outdoors. At the top of the hill sits a charming tea house, an especially unique feature and wonderful setting for summer gatherings and garden parties, accompanied by the gentle sounds of the pond and waterfall. A large storage shed and patio close to the house extend the kitchen and outdoor living areas. Unique and clearly well loved, this is a home with character that cannot be recreated. A rare opportunity to become its next steward and continue the story.
