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. Following more than $3 million in renovations, this three-storey brick masterpiece has been transformed into a Michelin Guide-recognized boutique hotel and destination restaurant, offering a rare turnkey hospitality enterprise. The property features 14 beautifully appointed guest suites, each with a private three-piece ensuite, surrounded by custom-painted murals, antique and original wallpaper, exposed brick, marble wood-burning fireplaces, vaulted 14 to 16-foot ceilings, and refinished hardwood floors. Six private balconies overlook the beautifully landscaped grounds. Culinary spaces include a glass conservatory dining room and bar, a fully equipped commercial kitchen with walk-in refrigerator and freezer, a state-of-the-art wine cellar, Bar Atlas, and Brasserie Alexandria. The wine cellar features four climate-controlled temperature zones for wine storage, while a three-season patio provides additional dining space. Recent capital improvements include a new asphalt-shingle roof, stabilized chimneys, a modern Daikin heat pump heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system, Viessmann gas boilers, in-floor heating, and 400-amp electrical 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 or inn of up to 15 rooms, a meeting room, catering kitchen, and restaurant, offering significant flexibility for continued hospitality operations. Located just one block from the Picton Marina and downtown Picton, Merrill House represents an extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of the region’s history while operating a thriving hospitality business in one of Ontario’s most celebrated destinations.
