They often say many homes have character, but few capture the character of days gone by quite like this one. Originally built in 1890, this truly special property offers a unique layout, timeless charm, and versatility unlike anything else currently on the market. Set in a desirable Main Street location with Hamlet Office zoning, this home has served for many years as both a primary residence and a professional real estate office, offering exceptional potential for a variety of permitted uses. Renovated and expanded in 2001, great care was taken to preserve the home's historic charm while incorporating modern conveniences. The first level welcomes you into a warm gathering room with a wood-burning brick fireplace and glass doors leading to a beautifully landscaped backyard with an inground kidney-shaped pool. A formal dining area flows into the eat-in kitchen, complete with a large center island, farmhouse sink, breakfast nook, and side entrance to a charming brick patio. A full bathroom with a clawfoot tub and a main-level bedroom add comfort and flexibility. Beyond the kitchen, a second living room, currently used as a home office, connects to a separate waiting room/Den with its own private entrance, ideal for professional or mixed-use possibilities. Upstairs, you will find three additional bedrooms, a versatile media/bonus room, a primary suite, second full bathroom and large dressing suite with laundry area. Two staircases lead to the second level: a graceful curved banister staircase and an antique wood staircase off the kitchen, reminiscent of a bygone era. The private backyard features mature landscaping, a stunning kidney-shaped pool, and peaceful outdoor spaces perfect for relaxing or entertaining. With low taxes, a prime location, and Hamlet Office zoning allowing uses such as a real estate office, insurance office, investment office, legal services, and more, this property offers rare flexibility and opportunity. A home rich in history, charm, and potential - this one will not last
