When you step inside this unique, renovated 1897 church, you can't help but imagine the fabulous holidays your family and friends would enjoy here. On the main street of the charming village of Nottawa, this is a home meant for gathering. This rare opportunity is absolutely full of thoughtful touches and decor lavished on it by its current owners, and all those touches are included in the sale. Furnishings, linens, rugs, art, lamps, antiques, even the dishes, all come with the house so moving in will be easy. Your family will enjoy the restful and restorative atmosphere of the main floor with the soft light of stained glass. The sprawling living space under post and beam cathedral ceilings has a chalet like feel. It features a primary seating area in front of a wood burning fireplace with a wonderful long and welcoming bar for entertaining. The bar itself was recovered from an old general store. An adjoining space houses another seating area in front of a gas fireplace and a large billiards table. The dining table seats 14 so no card tables will be necessary. Each space is wide open yet beautifully defined with a combination of historic details and new improvements. You will have room for all your guests in the five upstairs bedrooms, all stylishly decorated and all enjoying the comforting glow of stained glass windows.The main floor den has a pull out sofa bed and an ensuite bathroom for additional sleeping quarters. It is a home to wander in, explore, and bask in its warmth and coziness. Outside, a large backyard deck allows space for an oversized bbq and an enormous hot tub, all under a beautiful canopy of mature trees. Multiple sheds for storage and potting make maintenance easy -- and even the garden equipment is included. (id:2493)
