There are large rooms throughout including a double-parlor with wood burning fireplace, formal dining room and contemporary eat-in kitchen with a cozy enameled cast iron VT stove for winter mornings. The 2nd floor offers 9' ceilings, 3 well-proportioned bedrooms, a small study and fully renovated bathroom.  The 3rd floor is a special retreat with cathedral ceilings, skylights and a newer vintage style bathroom with clawfoot tub.   Also, central AC, 200amp electrical service, 2-car detached brick garage and a new (2025/2026) gas heating system.  This is a unique property with many possibilities for adding additional living space, an ADU or potentially additional housing.  See agent regarding architectural schematics for possible development options.
