A truly unique opportunity to own a spacious and beautifully artistic Victorian home filled with remarkable architectural character, natural light and extraordinary spaces for living, gathering and creating. Set on a corner property in the heart of Bridgetown, this distinctive home offers three principal living levels, a full dry basement, exceptional top-floor studio, multiple living spaces, sunny deck, covered Victorian veranda, two yard areas, and established edible and flower gardens. From the ornate grand staircase and graceful arched openings to bay windows, stained and coloured glass, original woodwork, high ceilings, chandeliers and hand-painted decorative floors, this is a home with personality and charm. The main floor offers generous spaces for everyday living and entertaining. The formal dining room opens through patio doors to the large sunny deck, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living. The spacious double living room features graceful arched openings and distinctive hand-painted flooring, while a charming sitting nook surrounded by stained glass and bay windows provides a beautiful light-filled retreat. The kitchen and convenient half bathroom complete this level. Upstairs, stained and coloured glass continue throughout the hallway and rooms. This floor offers three good-sized bedrooms plus a smaller fourth room that has been used as a bedroom and could serve as an office, study, nursery or creative space. One front bedroom features beautiful stained-glass detailing, while an additional sitting room with more stained glass and bay windows provides another inviting living area. A full bathroom completes the second floor. The third floor is perhaps the home's most remarkable feature. A private upper-level room with an adjacent full bathroom creates an excellent ensuite bedroom or guest retreat, while the adjoining large studio is truly exceptional. Featuring a high wood ceiling, beautiful round-topped stained-glass windows and expansive ornate hand-painted flooring, this dramatic space offers endless possibilities as an art or music studio, yoga or dance space, home gym, creative workspace, children's recreation room, gathering area or additional living space. A dedicated laundry and storage room adds everyday functionality, while the full dry basement provides substantial storage and potential for future development, subject to applicable requirements and approvals. Significant improvements include a recently replaced roof, replacement windows throughout, repaired and levelled front porch foundation, one exterior wall completely re-boarded, deteriorated exterior shingles replaced as needed, and four heat pumps providing efficient heating and cooling throughout the home. The corner location provides two distinct yard areas. The larger yard along Washington Street features established edible and ornamental gardens, including mature apple and pear trees, grape vines, raspberries, thornless blackberry and strawberries, along with several flower gardens and two charming heart-shaped garden beds. Patio doors open onto the large sunny deck, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. The smaller backyard offers a more private space with a wooden platform and existing hookup ready for a hot tub. The covered Victorian veranda adds another inviting outdoor space and enhances the home's historic street presence. Additional highlights include original hardwood floors, extensive stained and coloured-glass detailing, numerous bay windows, high ceilings, chandeliers, four heat pumps, large deck, covered veranda, off-street driveway parking for two vehicles, and walking-distance access to Bridgetown shops, services and amenities. This is not a cookie-cutter property—it is a home filled with history, artistry, warmth and individuality. With its Victorian architecture, multiple living spaces, established gardens and extraordinary dedicated studio, this property offers a rare opportunity for a family home, creative retreat, artist's or musician's space, or simply a truly distinctive place to call home.
