One of four private residences built by the prominent Burnet Brothers circa 1864 whose chief building legacy was the iconic Victoria Hall in downtown Cobourg.

A gorgeous arched front entry with curved transom window welcomes you to the foyer that leads to the grand centre hall with soaring ceilings, crown moulding & rich hardwood floors. The front formal living & dining rooms are perfectly scaled for entertaining large groups & feature original fireplaces & large windows that fill the spaces with warm natural light. A beautiful & well-appointed chef's kitchen is the heart of the home with its large centre island Wolf Range & Sub-zero Fridge/Freezer, stand alone wine cooler & designated pantry room.
