The home offers an abundance of versatile living space, accommodating any lifestyle. Located on beautiful Congress Street, walk to all the Belfast amenities including the waterfront parks, downtown cafe's, library, farmer's markets and of course, the beautiful downtown waterfront. Featuring a lovely, sunny kitchen with back staircase to 2nd floor; cozy den with a wood burning fireplace, formal dining room with bay window; front parlor large enough to accommodate room for all. A spacious laundry/coat room and full bath with claw foot tub and shower, round out the first floor. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms, half bath, and a smaller room off the back staircase which offers tremendous storage. This room was likely the nursery back in the day. Situated on a spacious .81 Acre lot, the possibilities are numerous. Attached barn with 1 car garage. Full basement accessed from the laundry and exterior entrance as well. This property is priced equitably due to the updates needed. Financing is not likely an option for this one. Bring your energy and love and renew this gem into a shining jewel. Serious buyers only folks.
