This unique property consists of a historic, completely renovated red brick schoolhouse, and a large modern addition and a freestanding timber frame garage. The schoolhouse, SS 3, built in 1884 in Osprey County (now Grey Highlands) was closed in 1965 and purchased by skiers as a getaway. The current owners purchased the property in 2002 and began a complete restoration over several years. The restoration was careful to maintain the original charm while bringing it to modern day standards. It contains the kitchen, dining room and living room under a 17 ft cathedral ceiling height as well as 2 bedrooms, a loft and 3-pc bathroom. 2-zone hydronic in floor heat and rads and a wood stove are installed. The addition was built in 2017. The main floor contains a great room with a fireplace, 22ft cathedral ceiling height, sunroom, sauna, 3-pc bathroom and laundry room. The second floor contains the primary bedroom with 4-pc bathroom, 2 additional bedrooms and powder room. The basement contains an entertainment area, exercise area, storage and utility room. 6-zone hydronic in floor heat are installed, including the basement. The garage was built in 2012. Dimensions and shape were based on the schoolhouse and it is built with the same standards as a quality home however the roof and truss structure are of timber frame construction and built by a local craftsman and creates a cathedral ceiling height of 27 ft. It contains a large garage area with car lift, a utility room, a 3-pc bathroom and a loft currently used as an office and sitting area. An air compressor, central vac and 3-zone hydronic in floor heat are installed. Situated in a beautiful country setting, this property is a short distance to many destinations.
