Original mantel surrounds, preserved from former fireplaces, add architectural charm and historic character. Unique period light fixtures,10 ft high ceilings, and thoughtful updates throughout highlight its one-of-a-kind appeal. The spacious kitchen is a true gathering place, complete with a center island featuring a newer cooktop, prep area, sink, partial butcher block countertop, a large breakfast bar and adding to its historic charm is a brick hearth alcove-originally used for a wood or coal stove-now a character-rich focal point with endless potential. A spacious room off the kitchen is partially being used as the laundry room which adds everyday functionality. Outside, a 2 story 37x47 detached carriage house with 3,478 sq ft, offers endless possibilities with its original horse stalls, hay racks, cobblestone floors, cabinetry, water, electric, and a wood stove. This a great multi-purpose structure and could also be used as a garage, workshop, or creative space-the possibilities are endless. This home also includes a historic icehouse structure that could be revitalized, offering a glimpse into the home's past and an opportunity for creative restoration.
