The place
A four-bed, three-bath home in Niagara-on-the-Lake with a storage barn and two garages. Located a five-minute drive from the town’s many shops, restaurants and wineries, the property backs onto the Niagara River Recreation Trail, which snakes along the American border and connects NOTL to Fort Erie.
The history
This house previously belonged to one of the founders of the adjacent Lailey Winery. The current owners purchased the property in October 2021 and gutted it. They spent over $1 million on the renovation, working with designer Enrico DiRisio. The work was completed at the end of 2022. Now, the home is for sale.
