Wood Cottage: Historic Beauty Since 1853

Nestled on just under an acre in the heart of Guelph, Wood Cottage is a remarkable Regency-style log home that beautifully blends architectural significance with historic charm. Built in 1853 and lovingly preserved by the current owners for over 65 years, this extraordinary residence has been home to only three families throughout its storied history. Set high above the street on a private, tree-lined lot, the property offers a rare sense of tranquility while remaining just minutes from the city's amenities. Inside, original character is showcased through warm log construction, barrel-vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and a welcoming wood-burning fireplace. The thoughtfully designed layout includes bright and inviting living spaces, two main-floor bedrooms, and a charming upper-level retreat ideal for guests, a home office, or creative studio. Complementing the main residence is a historic secondary log building relocated from the Luther Marsh area in 1966, adding both character and functionality. Rich in history and meticulously cared for, Wood Cottage presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to become the next steward of one of Guelph's most treasured heritage properties.
