Centrally located 7 minutes from Bridgewater and only a kilometer up the Riverport Road granting thoughtful access to amenities and scenic routes. Construction of The Pearl Lodge started in early 1916 as a female-only boarding house for women whose lives had been disrupted during the First World War. The Pearl itself transitioned into what would be known today as a B&B, the home is still listed today on Google Maps under its current name, “The Pearl”. Boasting nearly 2,700 square feet of living space on three floors and has easy potential to comfortably host a minimum of 8 to 10 bedrooms if the dining and living rooms are counted in. This number does not take into consideration the basement area, which could be converted into some kind of living space if desired. The main floor hosts a central hallway leading to the front door with the convenience of a full bath and laundry room providing access to an independent, in-floor wine cellar that could be used for any kind of cool storage. Still displaying its original features from the 1900’s, the second floor has 4 equal bedrooms, a bathroom and a full-sized front stairway leading to the front door as well as narrower rear stairs leading down to the kitchen. Finally, the house sits above a full concrete floored basement whose outside granite rock walls have recently been insulated and coated with fire retardant, making the basement a retainer and even a source of warmth, as it now hosts a WETT certified modern pellet stove that can heat the entire home in addition to the home’s original oil-fired baseboard boiler. The property has seen many upgrades such as the heavily improved yard, metal roof on garage and a high-quality “Bravo” style metal roof complimenting the style of the building. The Pearl would make a great B&B or large family home. (Storage Container will be removed on or before closing day).
