Property Description

Located in the heart of historic Port Hope, the Clemes Duplex is a 19th-century architectural classic in walking distance to Trinity College, one of Canada's most esteemed independent schools. Constructed during Port Hopes vibrant 1870s building boom, the Clemes Duplex mirrors the prosperity and architectural ambition of its era, rarely found in today's market. Built circa 1875 this grand semi-detached home offers 4,350 sq ft of elegant living space. Boasting 5 generous bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and nestled on a magnificent lot that spans on approx. half an acre. Surrounded by mature trees, lush landscaped gardens, a charming vegetable garden, and a serene pond you're invited into a private, picturesque setting ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. Situated among a collection of stately heritage homes and offering sweeping views of the surrounding streetscape, this home combines historical prestige with a coveted location, ideal for families, history enthusiasts, or those seeking a sophisticated blend of character and lifestyle. The home's details are a prime example of French Second Empire architecture, showcasing a steep cedar-clad mansard roof, ornate arched windows, gabled dormers, and twin two-storey bay windows that lend grandeur to its hilltop perch on picturesque King Street. The symmetrical façade features elegant double-door entrances with arched transoms, inviting you into rich interiors with historic charm: soaring ceilings, intricate plaster medallions, stained glass, original interior shutters, and a showstopping central staircase that reflects the craftsmanship of the late 1800s. Whether you're dreaming of a warm, character-filled family home or a timeless residence that echoes the grace and grandeur of a bygone era, the Clemes Duplex is ready to begin its next beautiful chapter with you.
