25 Main St, Whitewater Region, ON K0J 1K0

A rare opportunity to finish a historic masterpiece in the heart of Cobden. Welcome to 25 Main Street, a solid two-storey brick home built in 1900, brimming with original charm and timeless craftsmanship. Set on a generous 138' x 122' corner lot, this mixed-use commercial property offers history, character, and the chance to bring a unique vision to life. Early 20th-century design blends beautifully with the space and flexibility needed for modern living. The main floor features a grand foyer with original staircase, a versatile family area that could easily become a future in-law suite or secondary unit, and a formal dining room with preserved 1900s woodwork. The spacious rear area is full of natural light and potentially ideal for a main level bathroom, a dream kitchen, a walk-in pantry, and generous storage with direct access to the garage and backyard, perfect for entertaining or relaxed outdoor living. The den on the main floor offers more original woodwork, perfect for a guest bedroom or a home office to manage your local commercial business. Upstairs are two bedrooms, a 4-piece bath with laundry, and roughed-in framing for a future primary suite complete with an ensuite and a bonus room ideal as a nursery, office, or reading nook. The layout is flexible and ready to customize. Located just a short walk to the beach, boat launch, shops, schools, church, and parks, this home offers a rare mix of location and potential. Detached garage with loft, municipal water/sewer, landscaped yard with perennial garden, efficient gas heat and A/C, high ceilings, and hardwood charm. Sold as-is, with open permits, drawings/plans and a 2021 pre-inspection report available. Major updates: metal roof and 2nd floor addition (2024), new structural support posts, beams and solid sub-floors, gas furnace (2021), central air (2022), spray foam insulation (2023), 200 amp panel, and mostly new windows (2022), offering a solid foundation to restore and revive its timeless beauty.
