Welcome home to 24 Manley Street. Purposefully quirky. Thoughtfully crafted. Built in 1886, this character-rich home blends historic soul with spaces designed to adapt to real life. Set on a quiet dead-end street, yet walkable to downtown Ayr, it offers rare privacy on a fully fenced lot just under half an acre. Inside, 9-foot ceilings, reclaimed hemlock barn board floors, and generous living and dining areas create warmth and flow. The kitchen is made for people who truly cook, featuring Sapele butcher block countertops, a Garland industrial gas range and oven, and a sun-filled greenhouse window—perfect for growing herbs or nurturing plants year-round. A charming screened-in sunroom invites slow mornings with coffee, relaxed afternoons, and lingering summer evenings. The layout is intentionally flexible: a spiral staircase leads to a private bedroom and 4-piece bath, creating an ideal guest retreat, teen space, or personal hideaway, with the option to be separated from the main house. A nearby office—easily used as a bedroom—connects this wing to the original home. Step onto the large balcony and take in views of the peaceful, treed yard. Outdoors, life unfolds around a 60-foot pool, fire pit, and established gardens, supported by a garden shed and an auxiliary water system (dug well with pump)—ideal for maintaining lush outdoor spaces. A 40’ x 30’ gravel pad behind the detached garage adds flexibility for parking, storage, or future uses. With a multi-purpose room featuring polished concrete floors, a dedicated shower room off the mudroom, and a 30’ x 20’ drive-through garage with four doors, this is not a cookie-cutter home—it’s a place with history, heart, and room to evolve.
