The Scott/Grieg House - Circa 1823 - is featured in many Prince Edward County publications, including the iconic ""Settler's Dream"" & has intrigued travelers for over 200 years. Mystique & Wonder abound, due to the long approach driveway & grand setting, atop an elevation towards the rear of the property (which allows for the unique, walk-out basement from the original in-tact kitchen). The grounds are truly estate-like and feature: prolonged front lawn, snakerail fencing, established perennial gardens, pool, sculpture garden, magnificent rear covered porch & garage-gazebo - that flirts with the idea of garden parties or backyard weddings. The sophistication of the builder is evident - as most of the original features have stood the test of time and its Flemish-bond brick structure is as sturdy as the day it was completed - the home was a template for future construction style in the County & beyond. Inside the front door, you are greeted by the original staircase and generous hall entrances. The main floor is a comfortable layout, including living room with fireplace, that invites you to cozy up with a good book & rear welcoming area with charming powder room. The splendid kitchen with original sink, modern appliances & marble floor is bathed in light and leads to the magnificent formal dining room, adjacent to the current den - which could become an extension to the kitchen/Butler's pantry. Up the stairs, you will be greeted by incredible woodwork and built-in cabinetry and access to the ample attic space with the original quarter-circle fanned windows. The second floor once housed four bedrooms, but modern renovations have led to the addition of a splendid 4-pc bathroom, an enlarged grandiose primary bedroom, office space & additional bedroom with walk-in closet/future ensuite. This resplendent home has plenty of space to rearrange the layout to suit modern needs. **** EXTRAS **** The house features a total of 5 fireplaces - living, dining, bedrooms and original fireplace with bread oven in tact in the basement bonus room! 72 County Road 24 is a gift from the past for your future dreams.
