About this listing

Set on 9.5 private acres with over 400 feet of natural shoreline on Bayfield Bay, 190 Wilmer Road offers the space, privacy, and rural lifestyle that draws people to Wolfe Island. This updated 1860 limestone farmhouse offers 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and the character only a historic home can provide, including deep windowsills, a stone fireplace, and a cozy reading nook. The open living and dining area creates an inviting gathering space, while the renovated kitchen and bathroom (with heated floor), and numerous recent improvements including furnace, efficient fireplace insert, water treatment systems, R50 attic insulation, HRV, central A/C, and updated appliances, offer modern comfort. A large mudroom and east- and west-facing decks make everyday country living easy, with beautiful sunrise views across the property and bay. Ideal for hobby farmers, gardeners, and outdoor enthusiasts, the property includes a barn, chicken coop, 12' x 36' workshop, 12' x 20' greenhouse, fenced orchard and large garden, and a mud kitchen for the kids. Wildlife is abundant, with deer, birds, and other native species regularly spotted throughout the property. Launch a canoe or kayak from your own shore and explore the sheltered waters of Bayfield Bay and the St. Lawrence River beyond. Adding even more versatility is a hidden off-grid cabin built in 2023, currently operating as a seasonal Airbnb and providing an opportunity for supplemental income, guest accommodation, or a peaceful retreat. Surrounded by nature, this exceptional property offers the opportunity to embrace a quieter pace of life on Wolfe Island, just a short ferry ride from Kingston.
