Property Description
Ideally located in the heart of downtown Guilford, 26 Water Street is now officially available. Situated within the Guilford Green District, this property offers exceptional versatility with a wide range of permitted uses (see attached zoning regulations, Section 4.1). The existing use may continue as a non-conforming use if desired. The current layout is configured similarly to a multi-family residence OR single family with in law OR single family with home office as there are 2 floors each offering their own kitchens, bathrooms and separate rooms. The first floor features a renovated kitchen, open-concept living and dining area, two bedrooms, and a full bathroom. This space also presents an excellent opportunity for a first-floor home office, retail, or commercial use. The second floor mirrors the first, offering a kitchen, full bathroom, open-concept living and dining area, and two bedrooms. A walk-up attic provides additional storage. Both kitchens have been fully renovated with brand-new cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops. Additional updates include beautifully refinished hardwood floors throughout, fresh paint, new electrical and plumbing systems, updated flooring and fixtures, a new roof, and a new septic system. Built in 1926, the property offers over 1,800 square feet of living space, is serviced by city water, and is currently heated with oil.
