31 John Street W Bright, ON N0J 1B0

This stunning historic converted church exudes character and warmth! Over 4,500 finished sq ft on over a quarter acre lot backing farmer's fields, this home has it all. The breathtaking light-filled living areas offer soaring wood ceilings over 20 ft high, heated 130 year old pine floors, and remarkable restored architectural details. This is truly an entertainer's paradise with the open-plan chef's kitchen with a 6-burner gas stove, multiple ovens, dishwashers and sinks. Watch the game on the included projector with motorized screen. Dine or lounge while enjoying the gentle breeze in the screened-in covered sun porch while enjoying views of your gardens and the countryside. In the loft primary suite, you can appreciate staying connected to family in the great room below or close the large sliding doors for privacy. The open fireplace divides the bedroom from the ensuite, complete with more gorgeous stained glass windows. The lower level will surprise you with its large above-grade windows, high ceilings, and its main floor feel. A welcoming family room awaits, plus four more bedrooms.. one currently setup as a home gym. The lower level bathroom was renovated just last year! The addition of the garage in 2020 stepped up the entertaining spaces of this home yet another notch. The combination of insulation, in-floor heating and the ability to walk-up from the lower level allows it to serve as extra living space. There is an awning window for a pass-through bar with reclaimed barn beam above with built-in lighting, plus front/rear/side garage doors. In addition there is parking for 7+ cars in the two driveways. The newer shed has re-purposed church windows and a swing perfectly aligned for watching the sun set over the fields. A steel roof (2016), in-floor radiant heating, cooling via heat pump, septic system and municipal water allow you to live in comfort. Short commute to New Hamburg, Woodstock and 401 giving you country living with easy access to amenities.
