Currently utilized as a family home with guest suites operating as Porters Landing Guest House, there are multiple opportunities with this property. A third guest suite is partially completed and the existing garage is functioning as an artist studio space.

The rear half of the home consists of a large foyer, perfect for greeting guests, having coffee or even serving breakfast. It contains two spacious one-bedroom suites, ensuite with kitchenettes: the Schooner Suite and the Merchant's Quarters, and potential for a future 3rd one-bedroom suite. The original main house, likely built in the late 18th or early 19th century, retains its classic beauty, stately proportions, and restrained colonial style right down to the fan carving above the front door. Inside, many of the wonderful original features such as wide plank floors, graceful center stairs, and elegantly carved mantels and molding now accent carefully restored modern living spaces. Old and new exist in lovely harmony in this home. The kitchen is spacious and open while a former home office can swap in for a pantry. The living areas are both light-filled and cozy with fireplaces or woodstoves. The front of the house holds the oversized kitchen, home office, two living rooms (one utilized as a bedroom), an ensuite bedroom upstairs and an additional bedroom or two depending upon the third guest suite option. This wonderful, extremely well-built home has housed man
