Step into history at 518 Lakeview Drive, locally known as The Hamilton House. Originally built and owned by John D. Hamilton, prominent banker and civic leader, this distinguished five-bedroom historic residence has been thoughtfully restored over the past several years, blending timeless character with modern comfort.
The extensive restoration includes a new roof (2023), upgraded 200-amp electrical service and panels, PEX plumbing throughout, restored structural components, new gas lines, chimney caps, basement waterproofing, and a restored main boiler. All doors have been reworked, ceilings and lighting replaced throughout, every surface painted, and the original oak flooring beautifully restored.
At the heart of the home is a custom two-room gourmet kitchen featuring wood cabinetry, unlacquered brass hardware and fixtures, double sinks, a 36" Forte gas range and natural slate flooring. A new powder room features a vintage marble sink and marble flooring.
The formal living room showcases a custom mural created in Poland, while the dining room features a new chandelier and sconces. The elegant primary suite includes Lewis & Wood wallcovering, custom drapery, a marble vanity, original deep soaking tub, and a separate Italian-tiled shower with custom glass enclosure. French doors lead directly from the primary bedroom to the upstairs balcony, creating a special connection to the outdoors.
An additional full upstairs bathroom was thoughtfully added with a custom vintage vessel sink and vanity, unique tile, no-step shower entry, and new toilet. Three additional bedrooms have been restored, bringing the total to five.
Outside, the porches have been enhanced with structural improvements, custom-milled wood ceiling, new lighting, Versatex details, and fresh paint. Landscaping and garden areas complete the setting.
Modern conveniences include a digital thermostat, cameras, rear door lock, and fiber internet.
The Hamilton House is a rare opportunity to own a significant piece of local history—beautifully restored, thoughtfully updated, and ready for its next chapter.
