Property Description
Price correction! A rare opportunity to own a new home in an historic shell with off-street parking in downtown Chestertown. Renovated to the studs, everything in this home, inside and out, has been replaced or restored with energy efficiency in mind. On the surface, 511 High Street has all the conveniences for modern living. A new kitchen with quartz countertops and a breakfast bar, new bathrooms, a private office away from living spaces for working remotely, off-street parking, an EV charger and a large, private backyard to be enjoyed from the new deck. Yet, the charter of this house has not been stripped away. The original hardwood floors and heating grates were restored on the second floor, as were original doors, handrails and the newel post. But what makes this house a long-term, low-cost property is what is not cosmetic and cannot be seen . The water and sewer lines to the house were replaced and at the same time crawl the space below the house was dug out to allow easy access for contractors. Gone are concerns of a drafty old house, as no energy saving measures were overlooked. Closed-cell spray foam insulation was installed, as were new Anderson 400 series windows, dual-zoned HVAC systems and LED lighting. To top it off, a new roof was installed. So park your EV in your driveway, walk downtown to the farmer's market and then sit on your new deck to plan your spring garden and cross home repairs off your to-do list.
