It started in 1977 with a hand made model, an eye for northern light exposure into a studio, and a desire for a view of the Maitland River and it's valley. It then became a unique, 6 bedroom, 4 bathroom architecturally interesting home for this owner to enjoy the River and all it has to offer. Perched atop the valley, this home was built to inspire the owners artistic creativity, and provide a tranquil setting to enjoy nature. With over 1000 feet of river frontage, and a park like setting up where the house sits, the access to the Maitland Trail, which winds through the property, is a short walk away. Some other unique features of this home are it's glass solarium (with most windows replaced in 2012) a living room with a propane fireplace (2020) and spiral staircase leading up to the art studio/family room with it's unique propane stove (2020), and north facing windows to capture natural light. The primary bedroom has replaced windows (2021) and a stunning view of the river and valley. This is an interesting house with a rich history! (id:55581)
