Settled in the valleys of Bonshaw and only 5 minute drive to Victoria By The Sea is the lovely original South Melville School House. This chapter out of time when children of all ages were educated in the same one room has lovingly been converted into a year round or seasonal home. Starting with the 4 ft poured concrete foundation frost wall for stability, this property was then completely restored. The entire property is wood which creates a warm feeling and all the windows makes for a very bright “learning” space. No gyproc here! The main level has a huge entry/mud room with a wood box for the small wood stove that creates more heat than you will ever need in this cozy place. The living/ kitchen and dining room are all open concept in keeping with the original school house design. There are all the modern conveniences including Fridge, Stove, Dishwasher, and laundry room with toilet and sink. Upstairs there are 2 good sized bedrooms, a huge main bath with tub and shower plus the master bedroom has a separate dressing room. The entire place lends itself to a nostalgic yet magical feel with lots of privacy. Did I mention there are 2 large decks perfect for the BBQ and as many guests you would like to entertain? *all measurements are approximate and should be verified by the buyer if deemed necessary.* some personal items/furnishings may be available for purchase as well.
