Rare offering! St. Lawrence River waterfront with a period home, barn and workshop set on six private acres, all under 900K. One of Howe Island's oldest residences is now offered for sale. This original 19th century hand-hewn square timber log cabin is nestled on 6.48 acres including 48 feet of waterfront on the Bateau Channel of the St. Lawrence River. The expansive grounds include a small pine forest, several early apple trees, limestone outcroppings, lawn areas and fire pit. The original log cabin was dated by the previous owners to be built between1830-1840. In 1972, the foundation was underpinned and a Viceroy addition with full basement was built to take advantage of the view of the river and the grounds. The log cabin hosts a study and dining room on the main floor, and two bedrooms and a new 3-pc bathroom on the upper level. The addition is a fabulous open concept Great Room with vaulted ceiling, custom kitchen and a second 3pc bathroom. The finished basement hosts two more rooms, perhaps a rec room and study, as well as storage room and laundry area. The outbuildings include an expansive barn, driveshed, insulated workshop and bunkie, all with hydro. The waterfront features a floating dock suitable for two boats, and a limestone retaining wall. This piece of paradise has something for everyone, a place to host memorable family events and fabulous river days, yet also a tranquil place of retreat from a busy world, now seeking a new family to continue its history. Out-buildings: Barn (hydro), 10' x 10' bunkie, workshop (hydro, insulated), driveshed(hydro).Waterfront: floating dock, dock pergola, limestone retaining wall. Suitable for docking 24' boat.
