Description
Welcome to Daffodil Cottage, a truly exceptional heritage home where timeless character meets modern comfort. Dating to circa 1880, this beautiful Regency-style Ontario cottage has been thoughtfully updated by DUO Construction while preserving the architectural details and historic charm that make it so unique. Beautifully landscaped front gardens create an inviting first impression, with a centred walkway leading to the elegant front entrance portico. Inside, the spacious primary bedroom features a breathtaking five-piece ensuite finished in crisp white with classic Carrara marble inlay tile and heated floors. The gracious living room offers a stunning period gas fireplace, creating a warm setting for relaxing or entertaining. The elegant dining room is filled with natural light from an oversized bay window and accented by a dazzling crystal chandelier. The thoughtfully updated kitchen combines warmth and functionality with custom cherry cabinetry, quartz countertops and heated flooring. A convenient side entrance leads to a secluded bistro-style sitting area, perfect for morning coffee or a quiet afternoon retreat. Just off the kitchen, the large family room features an oversized skylight and patio doors opening to a three-season screened lanai. Outside, the beautifully designed stone patio feels like a private secret garden, surrounded by mature landscaping and complete with a soothing water feature. The main-floor study offers heated flooring and a separate entrance to a private courtyard, creating an ideal home office or peaceful workspace. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a lovingly updated piece of London's history in an exceptional location, within easy walking distance of Gibbons Park, downtown shopping, restaurants and theatre. Western University, LHSC and St. Joseph's Hospital are also just a short distance away. Daffodil Cottage is a truly special home offering character, privacy and modern luxury in one of London's most desirable neighbourhoods.
