Whether you’re seeking a comfortable private residence or envisioning a boutique business—such as an antique shop, art gallery, Bed & Breakfast, or Airbnb—this property offers exceptional flexibility. Inside, authentic details abound: original unpainted woodwork, wide-plank hardwood floors, and classic “butterfly corner block” moldings—rare features that highlight true 19th-century craftsmanship. Custom built-ins further enhance the home’s unique appeal. The spacious layout includes three generous bedrooms plus two large bonus rooms—ideal for a home office, studio, gym, or additional living space, with potential for a separate staircase.
