The Pinnacle of Picton - Merrill House. A landmark Victorian Gothic estate in the heart of Prince Edward County wine country, originally built in 1878 for Judge Edwards Merrill and heritage-designated. Over $3M in renovations have transformed this three-storey brick masterpiece into a Michelin Guide-recognized boutique hotel and destination restaurant - a rare turnkey hospitality enterprise. The property offers 14 beautifully appointed guest suites, each with a private 3-piece ensuite, set among custom-painted murals, antique and original wallpaper, exposed brick, marble wood-burning fireplaces, vaulted 14-16 ft ceilings, and refinished hardwood floors. Six private balconies overlook the grounds. Culinary spaces include a glass conservatory dining room and bar, a fully equipped commercial kitchen with walk-in fridge and freezer, a state-of-the-art wine cellar, plus Bar Atlas and Brasserie Alexandria. The state-of-the-art wine cellar has four climate-controlled temperature zones for wine storage and a three-season patio dining area. Recent capital improvements include a new asphalt-shingle roof, stabilized chimneys, a modern Daikin heat-pump HVAC system, Viessmann gas boilers, in-floor heating, and 400-amp service. Set on 1.07 landscaped acres with mature 150-year-old trees, the grounds feature interlocking-brick walkways, a covered event tent, stone fire pit, barrel sauna, and on-site parking for approximately 25 vehicles. Site-specific zoning permits a hotel/inn of up to 15 rooms, a meeting room, catering kitchen, and restaurant. One block from the Picton Marina and downtown, Merrill House represents an extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of Picton's history alongside a thriving, supply-constrained hospitality business (id:60365)
