Property Description
Now offered for sale is a truly unique and lovingly restored 1900-built one bedroom schoolhouse that blends timeless charm with thoughtful modern updates. Bathed in natural light from premium Loewen windows framed with oak fluted casings and trim, this historic gem captures the warmth and character of its origins while offering the comforts of today. From the carefully selected pendant lights in the main room—chosen to reflect the style of the original fixtures—to the solid oak doors with matching rosettes in both bathrooms, every detail has been handled with respect for the building’s past. Period ceiling tiles add a nostalgic touch overhead, while the interior has been freshly painted in 2025 to preserve the schoolhouse feel. A fully updated kitchen features newer cabinetry, countertops, and flooring, blending seamlessly with the space’s character. The property includes a primary bathroom and a half bath, both outfitted with classic lighting and oak trim. Outside, charming brick paver walking paths add to the property’s curb appeal and provide inviting transitions between outdoor spaces. A new furnace and hot water heater were installed in 2023, and brand-new carpet was added in 2025. Situated on nearly an acre of fully fenced land, the yard is ideal for outdoor gatherings, gardening, or creative use. A fascinating bonus: the plot map reveals the schoolhouse sits directly on the line between Dexter and Chelsea—giving it a foot in both communities. Whether you're looking for a distinctive home, studio, or small business space, this historic schoolhouse offers rare character, modern updates, and endless potential. B.A.T.V.A.I
