Some addresses give you a home. This one gives you a piece of Port Colborne history.Welcome to 101 Tennessee Avenue, set along one of the city's most historic and sought-after lakefront streets.Tennessee Avenue traces its roots back to the late 1800s, when wealthy families from Memphis, Tennessee, created a private Lake Erie summer retreat. The stone pillars and wrought-iron gates at the entrance of Tennessee Avenue still stand as a reminder of that era. Today, that same sense of character, privacy, and lakefront prestige continues here. Set on a remarkable 500-foot-deep lot extending straight into Gravelly Bay on Lake Erie, this carefully preserved and smartly updated century home offers over 3,300 square feet, 4 bedrooms, and 2.5 bathrooms. The home carries a strong architectural presence.The turret is a true standout: striking, storybook, and full of character. It creates a curved alcove in the living room with wall-to-wall lakefront windows, a gas fireplace, and room for a grand piano.The main floor continues with a formal dining room opening to a lakeside deck, a bright kitchen with white cabinetry and built-ins, a breakfast nook, and a quiet library finished with board-and-batten detail.Upstairs, the primary suite spans the rear of the home, capturing wide lake views with its own fireplace, spa-style ensuite, clawfoot tub, and step-in closet.Original wood floors, a classic oak staircase, and a wide centre hall give the home the kind of craftsmanship you simply do not find in newer builds. Outside, the property becomes a true lakefront estate. Mature trees, tiered gardens, stone patios, a beach area, protected waters, and a double-size boathouse create a complete Lake Erie lifestyle.You can kayak, paddle board, entertain by the water, or simply enjoy the privacy of one of Port Colborne's most historic lakefront settings.This is 101 Tennessee Avenue. A rare century home.A remarkable waterfront lot. A true piece of Port Colborne history. (id:31684)
