Own a Piece of Tillsonburg History: The Leachman Residence. Rarely does a home of such narrative and craft come to market. Built in 1876, The Leachman Residence is a masterclass in Italianate architecture, standing as a testament to 150 years of care and character. Your journey begins on the west-facing covered porch, the perfect vantage point for golden hour. Step through the foyer to find a home defined by scale: soaring 10'5 ceilings and a breathtaking curved oak staircase uniquely accented with maple, walnut, and chestnut. This is a home built with a level of craftsmanship that simply cannot be replicated today. The main floor is a showcase of elegance, featuring 10 baseboards, 8 trim, and exquisite original mouldings. Beneath your feet lies a hidden treasure: simply stunning original red pine tongue-and-groove boards. While the front of the home celebrates the formal with its grand living and dining parlors, the rear of the residence is designed for modern connection. A 1980s addition introduced a sprawling Family Room and Office, anchored by a massive stone fireplace with a rustic wood-beam mantle, offering a cozy sanctuary for everyday life. Three massive bedrooms continue the theme of height and light, where the 10'5 ceilings create an airy, suite-like atmosphere in each. Situated on a lush quarter-acre with close proximity to downtown Tillsonburg's amenities, the property is a gardener's dream. Stroll through picturesque perennial gardens to find a vintage potting shed straight out of a storybook and a detached two-car garage.
