One of the oldest dwellings in Oakville, the house began life as a general store and ship’s chandlery in 1828 and was enlarged in 1891 to become a home for Captain James Andrew and his family. Situated on a 139.33’ x 52.17’ lot overlooking the marina and steps to the Oakville Club, downtown Oakville and the lake. The home is 1.5 storeys with a formal living room and dining room, family room/den, kitchen and powder room on the main floor and primary and second bedroom on the 2nd floor, each with their own ensuite baths. Lovely details such as original hardwood floors and built-in bookshelves fill the home with charm. The driveway entrance is on the west side and leads to the detached garage with a studio/summer room above, the perfect place to indulge in a good book, paint or sneak in a nap. The property is landscaped with several English-style gardens, patios with pergola and pretty feature pond and offers lots of potential.
