164 Ontario Street, Burk's Falls

Soaring ceilings, rich architectural detail & a bold, design-forward aesthetic define this extraordinary converted church, thoughtfully transformed into a one-of-a-kind residence. Offering 5 beds & 3.5 baths, the interior blends historic character & striking modern finishes. A dramatic black kitchen anchors the main living space with floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, quartz counters, modern tilework, & a rolling library ladder. Warm white walls contrast beautifully with ebony-stained fluted beams & accents, while shiplap in the Grand Room & Foyer enhances the scale of the space. Fluted detailing carries through the fireplace, kitchen island & hood vent, complemented by custom fluted pocket doors in the primary bedroom, main bath & powder room. Two natural wicker swings hang gracefully from the high ceilings, creating an unforgettable focal point. A wood-clad feature wall & modern electric fireplace add warmth, while reclaimed original church flooring has been repurposed as ceiling accents in the foyer & mudroom. The original hardwood on the main level has been refinished, & select areas feature durable epoxy flooring. Behind the beauty lies a comprehensive rebuild. The property was fully gutted to the studs, including removal of lath, plaster & old insulation, then completely reframed. Blown-in insulation was added through the balloon framing, the stone foundation was spray-foamed, & a fireproof membrane was installed between floors. All plumbing, electrical & HVAC systems have been replaced, including two separate furnaces for upper & lower levels plus air conditioning on the upper floor. The brick & stone exterior has been carefully restored, all windows & doors replaced, & the home has been rezoned as a duplex with full kitchen hookups added to the street-level floor. The lower level requires double drywall to complete full legal duplex conversion. An exceptional opportunity to own a meticulously restored architectural landmark, reimagined for modern living.
