Property Description
Welcome to The Historic Sappington House - A Timeless Estate in the Heart of Havre de Grace Step into the past while embracing the future at 212 S Union Avenue, a breathtaking 1838 Greek Revival estate located just steps from the vibrant waterfront and historic downtown Havre de Grace. Known as The Sappington House, this red-brick architectural gem is one of the iconic "Canal Houses" and offers an unparalleled blend of historic elegance, modern functionality, and income potential. Set on a lush 12,000 sq ft lot, the property is graced by manicured gardens, mature landscaping, and a peaceful greenhouse sanctuary, perfect for homegrown vegetables, herbs, or quiet morning coffee among the blooms. Stroll through the grounds and discover the original carriage house, now a versatile space that could serve as an artist's studio, guest retreat, or bonus rental unit. A detached two-car garage with a private alley entrance includes a fully finished loft above, ideal for a home office, creative workspace, or even short-term rental. Whether you're an investor, homeowner, entrepreneur, or multigenerational family, this property presents 5+ rentable units, including an owner's suite, multiple furnished kitchens, a builder's workshop, tool shed, and even a brick-lined wine cellar in the raised basement. Inside, over 5,700 finished square feet reveal expansive living spaces, timeless finishes, bedrooms on the main level, and three porches, including a stunning Doric-column front portico and a peaceful enclosed sunroom. From stately fireplaces to detailed friezes, every inch tells a story while inviting you to write your own. And the location? It doesn't get better. You're just one block from downtown Havre de Grace, a coastal treasure celebrated for its vibrant arts scene, locally owned boutiques, award-winning restaurants, and historic waterfront charm. Nearby to this treasure cove lays several marina's for you boatlovers, the promenade, and beloved theaters and event centers to catch local concerts! This is a town where neighbors know your name, where community pride runs deep, and where safety and small-town values create an atmosphere that feels like home the moment you arrive. This property is more than real estate, it's a legacy, an opportunity, and a rare chance to own a piece of American history. Live beautifully. Invest wisely. Welcome home to 212 S Union Avenue, where history, heart, and home come together.
