Original Remarks

The McGarva-Fingland House awaits its next owners. Built in 1865 by John McGarva of Scotland, this mid-Victorian heritage home blends history with everyday comfort in the heart of Huron County. Arrive via the interlock driveway and step inside to the striking original curving walnut staircase. New porcelain tile leads into the fully updated main floor sunroom, featuring spray foam insulation, new windows, and refreshed finishes. The open living area showcases high ceilings, crown molding, original oak floors, and large windows that fill the space with natural light. French doors lead to the dining room with a cozy gas fireplace-perfect for hosting. The spacious kitchen offers ample cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, quartz/stone countertops, and modern stainless steel appliances. You will also find an updated full bathroom on the main floor. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized, beautifully restored bedrooms, a four-piece bathroom, plus an updated sunroom that could serve as a fourth bedroom. Outside, enjoy a private backyard oasis with blooming gardens, manicured landscaping, and no rear neighbours. A mature oak tree-grown from an acorn brought from Scotland by John McGarva-adds a truly special touch. This home has been thoughtfully preserved and restored, with modern updates for comfortable living. Recent upgrades include an Enviroshake roof (2024), natural gas furnace (2021), water heater (2020), water softener (2022), refinished hardwood floors, new porcelain tile, updated bathrooms, and an upgraded garage with metal roof, spray foam insulation, new windows, and premium siding. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history at 154 Ontario Street. Viewings by appointment only-book your private showing today and don't miss out on this gem.
