About this home

Imagine waking up to sunrise views across 9.5 private acres and over 400 feet of natural shoreline on Bayfield Bay. At 190 Wilmer Road on Wolfe Island, that is your everyday. This updated 1860 limestone farmhouse offers 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and the kind of character you simply cannot replicate - deep windowsills, a stone fireplace with efficient wood stove insert, hardwood floors on the main level, and a cozy reading nook that feels like it was made for long winter afternoons. The open living and dining area is where everyone naturally gathers, and the renovated kitchen and main floor bathroom with heated floors mean you are not sacrificing comfort for character. The major improvements are already done - new furnace, on demand hot water, water treatment and reverse osmosis systems, R50 attic insulation, HRV, central A/C, and updated appliances - so you can focus on enjoying the life you came here for. A large mudroom keeps country life organized, and a mud kitchen the kids will love makes the most of every season. East- and west-facing decks are where your mornings and evenings will be spent, with sunrise views across the property and bay. Your property includes a barn, chicken coop, 12' x 36' workshop, 12' x 20' greenhouse, fenced orchard, and large garden - everything you need to grow, build, and put down roots. Deer and birds move through the property regularly, and your own shoreline puts Bayfield Bay and the St. Lawrence River within reach of a canoe or kayak any time you want. When your guests arrive, the private off-grid cabin built in 2023 is waiting - or let it continue earning as a seasonal Airbnb while you settle in. Wolfe Island is a short ferry ride from Kingston, and once you are here, you will wonder why you waited so long.
