Description
PRICE IMPROVEMENT! Constructed in 1888 with an additional cottage added in 1998, this property offers ultimate flexibility for residential, live/work, or commercial use and has been renovated to blend modern conveniences with historic charm. Fresh paint, refinished original hardwood floors, new kitchen (2024) with brand new stainless steel appliances and leathered granite countertops, detailed trim work, updated bathrooms, new sewer line (2023), newer boiler (2020), roof (2017), and foundation improvements (2024) bring this home into the 21st century without sacrificing its Victorian allure. The main house, which could be divided into two separate units with separate entrances, features 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, a formal dining room, ample closet space, an original leaded glass pantry, a sunroom with new floors (2024) & window treatments, and an upstairs studio or home office. The flexible layout is suitable for generating income or live/work arrangements. Laundry hookups are available both upstairs and downstairs, with a stackable washer/dryer included. The downstairs back bedroom also offers separate access, ideal for an office setup. The professionally designed outdoor living space offers a low maintenance cottage garden featuring a courtyard fountain, mature roses, peonies, and a stately shade tree. The cottage includes 1 bedroom + loft, 1.5 bathrooms, its own laundry and kitchen facilities, and central heating and air conditioning and presents a wonderful income generating opportunity, with a lease in place until May 2025. The cottage offers potential for office, owner occupied short term rental, multi-generational living, or conversion into a 1-car garage with an attached office or loft. This property's historic charm, modern updates, and versatility make it a rare find. Whether as a home, workspace, boutique, rental property, or a combination, this classic Victorian gem offers endless possibilities.
