Built in 1850 this heritage home features a classic centre hall plan and is filled with most of the features you would expect to find in a quality century home - beautiful wide baseboards and moldings, interior shutters, pine floors throughout most of the house, wood-burning fireplace and plenty of built-in bookcases.
Downstairs you will find a large and elegant living room (14' x 24'), a large formal dining room (16' x 14') and a compact yet efficient kitchen, as well as a warm and comfortable family room, 2-piece bathroom, and rear entrace through an enclosed porch/mud room. Upstairs are four bedrooms, a large 4-piece bathroom, 2-piece ensuite bathroom and plenty of closet space.
This house is ideally located in downtown Cobourg within easy walking distance of stores, Lake Ontario, parks, harbour, beach, library and most other amenities. The property at 67' x 223' is large by in-town standards and provices plenty of privacy and potential for a swimming pool, gardens etc.
In addition, the method of construction is worth noting. The house was built using a technique known as "stacked plank". There are several examples of this construction type in Cobourg and 303 King St. W. is certainly one of the best. When you view this home, be sure to look in the family room closet where the owners have left the planks exposed to illustrate this unique and high quality construction method.
