About this home
4519 Portland Avenue, Frontenac
Pride of ownership shines in this beautifully restored 2.5-storey limestone home in the heart of Sydenham. Rich in history, this home was originally the Switzer Hotel in the 1850s and even served as a meeting place for council before the town hall was built. Today, its a fully renovated, move-in-ready home offering a perfect blend of heritage charm and modern updates. Situated on a quiet street, this spacious home features 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and large principal rooms throughout. The main floor offers a bright living room with a propane fireplace (2019), a completely renovated kitchen (2021) with included appliances, and an updated 4-pc bath. The second floor includes a 3-pc bath (gut-renovated in 2021), two generous bedrooms, and access to the 2-storey annex, which houses the third bedroom - currently used as an artist studio/office with three walls of windows. The home sits on a beautifully landscaped lot with municipal water service, and includes a detached garage and garden shed, both with power. Exterior features include the original limestone construction, a brand-new metal roof (2024), updated vinyl windows, and low-maintenance finishes. The annex was fully re-insulated and re-sided in 2018, with new windows throughout. Other updates: electrical panel, new flooring, doors, paint, and laundry/mudroom (2020). Upper patio at the back of the property has water and electricity access - perfect for future outdoor entertaining. Located just a short walk to schools, parks, trails, and Sydenham Lake Beach ('The Point'), this property offers the rare opportunity to own a piece of local history with all the modern conveniences already in place. Nothing left to do - just move in and enjoy everything this special home and community have to offer!
