Rich in character, this extraordinary property was thoughtfully renovated just a few years ago. Original windows have been restored, hardwood floors brought back to life, and recent kitchen and bath updates place it among the finest homes on Solar Hill. The original front porch provides a timeless place to slow down and step away from the world, while the rear of the property was designed with entertaining in mind. Located just a few blocks from historic downtown Bristol, you are within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants, and the everyday energy that makes this part of town so special. Homes of this quality and era rarely come available in Bristol. The Caldwell House offers a rare opportunity to live not just near downtown, but within a true piece of its history.
