Property Description
Welcome to this thoughtfully remodeled 130 year old gem on 1.3 acres of river front seclusion. While this classic home is the perfect private get-a-way for you and your family, it’s location makes it easy for you to get around.
You are only:
15 mins to Franciscan University
20 mins to Austin Lake
21 mins to William’s Country Club
28 mins to Star Lake Pavilion
29 mins to Mountaineer Racetrack & Casino
32 mins to Pittsburgh Airport
90 mins to the heart of Amish Country
Wake up to an extraordinary view of the Ohio River – from your bedroom window or while enjoying your morning coffee on the giant cozy front porch swing. The four-year meticulous renovation of this 130 year-old 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is now complete for you and your family to enjoy. You’ll find the people here in Toronto, Ohio among the friendliest folks on earth. Excellent for all seasons.
Everything in this beautiful town of 5,000 people is less than 5 minutes away: Riesbeck’s Grocery store, Walgreens, Squid’s Brewery, Tri B’s Coffee Shop, Toronto Lanes Bowling, Yummy’s Ice Cream, walking track at football stadium, children’s playground, Toronto Memorial Pool and several restaurants.
The ambience of the train horn blowing in the distance, Church bells ringing, birds chirping and river barges passing by is like going back in time - in the best of ways.
GUEST'S COMMENTS ABOUT THE TOWN AND AMBIENCE:
“The flow of the river and barges passing by was so soothing.”
“This house is within walking distance to a great pizzeria, coffee shop and unique stores. Only 15 minutes to Franciscan.”
“The entire home has been renovated and nothing was overlooked. The house is immaculate while still feeling incredibly comfortable.”
“The most comfortable and serene experience we have ever had. Restful and deeply soothing. We left refreshed-- just what we needed.
“One of our favorite parts from our stay was how peaceful it was to drink our morning coffee on the porch.”
“The house was a haven of comfort and style.”
“An atmosphere of tranquility and warmth.”
“We were amazed at the view of the Ohio River from ALL of the front windows. The river is much closer than it appears in the photos. We sat on the bench, at the bank of the river-captivated by the birds in flight as the river flowed by.”
