Currently operating as a highly successful bed & breakfast and event venue, the property offers a unique opportunity for buyers seeking a historic residence with an established hospitality presence. The main residence features 5 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and 1 half bath thoughtfully arranged across multiple levels. The second level includes three spacious bedrooms—each with its own ensuite full bathroom, providing comfort and privacy for guests. The top level offers two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom, creating additional flexible living or guest accommodations. Several bedrooms also feature sitting rooms, while expansive common areas throughout the home provide comfortable gathering and entertaining spaces enhanced by hardwood floors, crown molding, and preserved period architectural details.

At the heart of the home is a chef’s dream kitchen, recently renovated in 2020, featuring beautiful granite countertops, a breakfast bar, pantry, and an oversized island that offers generous prep and serving space—ideal for entertaining or hospitality service. The home’s exterior spaces further enhance its historic appeal with two welcoming porches on the main level and a balcony on the second level, providing inviting spaces to relax and enjoy the surrounding neighborhood. The main residence also includes a fully accessible fire escape, offering additional convenience for the multi-level layout. A separate carriage house expands the property’s versatility and charm. The structure retains its original barn doors, preserving its historic character while offering adaptable living space. The second floor of the carriage house was renovated in 2025 and includes three bedrooms, a private living room, full bathroom, and a dedicated makeup area, creating comfortable guest accommodations or extended living quarters. The lower level features a fully functional office space with an additional full bathroom and abundant storage, providing flexible space for administrative, professional, or creative use.
