About this home
Welcome to the Historic Lynds Manor—where timeless elegance meets untapped potential.
Built in 1895 by Constable John S. Lynds, this storied estate has been home to a quarry magnate and an opera singer, its halls echoing with nearly a century and a half of character, charm, and occasion. Now, it awaits its next steward—someone with vision, a love of history, and an eye for transformation.
From the moment you step through the door, you’ll feel the grandeur of a home designed for entertaining. The deluxe Victorian kitchen, a delight for culinary creatives, offers a sunny scullery, butler’s pantry, garden window, and a center island flanked by vintage 1940s cabinetry.
The grand, raised dining room—once the site of lavish parties and genteel tea times—flows seamlessly into a massive living room with rich hardwood floors, an Art Deco built-in, and a stately wood-burning fireplace. A vaulted sunroom with pellet stove provides a cozy, light-filled retreat, while the main floor half bath offers convenience for guests.
Two elegant staircases lead to the upper level, where you’ll find four inviting bedrooms, a flex space with 5th bedroom potential, two full baths, and a library with original hardwood floors and built-in shelving. The primary suite includes double closets, a walk-through bathroom, sitting area, and newer windows for comfort without compromise.
Pull-down stairs provide access to the attic, a hidden world of potential above. Below, two separate basements tell their own story—one original with updated mechanicals, and the other newer and finished with daylight windows, epoxy floors, cedar walls, a hobby room, ¾ bath, wood-burning fireplace, and built-in bar.
Lynds Manor is more than a home; it's a piece of living history with a future waiting to be reimagined. For those with a passion for preservation and a vision for refinement, this is a rare and remarkable opportunity in the growing city of Sandstone.
