About this home

Situated on a beautifully landscaped lot, this lovingly restored 1830s home blends historic character with thoughtful modern updates across more than 2,100 square feet of living space. Showcasing timeless architectural details and meticulous care, the home offers four bedrooms, two full bathrooms, first-floor laundry, dual staircases, partial basement, walk-up attic, and established perennial gardens that provide color throughout the seasons. The main level features a bright, welcoming floor plan with spacious living areas flowing from the living room into a cozy sitting room highlighted by original built-in cabinetry. A stunning home office showcases extensive custom bookshelves and historic trim salvaged from a church in Harford, New York. Just off the dining room, a heated bonus room—formerly a three-season porch—creates the perfect space for a home office, studio, or hobby room. The remodeled kitchen combines style and functionality with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a brand-new dishwasher, and a built-in beverage refrigerator. A distinctive first-floor bathroom features classic black-and-white tile, a full shower, and a heated towel bar. Upstairs, four generously sized bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations. The updated full bathroom serves as a relaxing retreat with a clawfoot soaking tub, double vanity, radiant heated floors, heated towel rack, and a separate shower. Outside, the property continues to impress with a rare two-story carriage house featuring some of its original siding. The upper level has been transformed into a versatile recreation space that can be heated with a propane or electric heater and cooled with window air conditioning during warmer months. A spacious detached two-car garage provides excellent storage, workshop potential, and covered parking. Adding to its versatility, the home's layout offers potential to be converted into a two-unit residence for multigenerational living or income-producing use, subject to local approvals. Combining historic craftsmanship with exceptional flexibility, this truly special property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy timeless charm with modern convenience.
