5105 Valley Street

About this home

Set on 0.31 acres overlooking the Embarras River Valley, this distinctive 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers a unique combination of character, history, and recent updates. Originally used as a Ranger Station, the home was relocated from Coalspur to its current location in Robb in 1965 and is believed to date back to approximately 1930. Inside, many of the home's original details remain, including hardwood flooring, craftsman-style casings and baseboards, and an abundance of windows that fill the space with natural light. Recent improvements include paint throughout, new main-floor flooring, and updated bathrooms. Additional updates over the years include a furnace in 2021, hot water tank in 2019, shingles, select windows designed to complement the home's original character, and a newer pressure tank. An enclosed front porch adds to the charm, while the property backing onto the valley provides a peaceful setting and impressive views. The home is included on Yellowhead County's list of properties of historical interest but has not been formally designated as a heritage site, allowing a future owner flexibility in how they choose to maintain or update the property. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, recreational getaway, or simply a home with a story and a setting that's hard to duplicate, this unique Robb property is well worth a look. (id:67470)
