18611 Leslie Street East Gwillimbury, Ontario

Welcome to Colonel Wayling House, a circa-1855 farmhouse on a private 1.18-acre lot in historic Sharon, once an active family farm for over 80 years. With 3+2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this home showcases genuine farmhouse character, with wide baseboards, wide window trim and warm wood floors through the living, dining and kitchen areas, along with a cozy gas fireplace (2018) and a charming summer kitchen that still has its original wood-burning fireplace. A flexible bonus space with a wet bar works as a home office, guest space or multi-generational suite. Outside, the classic wrap-around porch looks over mature perennial gardens, and the rear yard is partially fenced. Set on a solid stone foundation, the home has seen practical updates, including a steel roof (approx. 10-11 yrs), verandah roof (approx. 15 yrs), in-wall A/C, and gas hot water radiant heat with electric baseboard upstairs. The full-height unfinished basement adds excellent storage. A paved driveway leads to a heated (natural gas) 2-car garage with loft, plus a heated workshop and two additional outbuildings at the rear, ideal for hobbies, storage or a home-based business. Municipal water, private septic, survey available, zoned RU for flexibility. Flexible possession. Minutes to Hwy 404, GO Transit, schools, shops and all amenities in one of York Region's fastest-growing communities. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Sharon's history. (id:4555)
