This historic landmark 3-story property has been completely renovated while retaining all of its colonial charm with exposed posts and beams, wide plank pine floors and brick chimneys. Currently used as a two offices and would need to be renovated and outfitted to be a single family. The building has a new roof, new electrical wiring, new plumbing and new HVAC (ductless electric units on each floor provide heat and AC). Solar panels were also installed which currently generates a net surplus of electricity....This historic landmark 3-story property has been completely renovated while retaining all of its colonial charm with exposed posts and beams, wide plank pine floors and brick chimneys.

The building has a new roof, new electrical wiring, new plumbing and new HVAC (ductless electric units on each floor provide heat and AC). Solar panels were also installed which currently generates a net surplus of electricity. The 1st floor boasts an open floor plan with custom picture windows and a new kitchen and bathroom. The 2nd floor also offers a very open space but has a separate room that could be serve as either a bedroom or conference room. There is a half bath on the 2nd floor. The third floor is currently used purely for storage but there are definite expansion possibilities. The property has been used as office space by the current owner but had previously been a retail store (Ma Goetzinger's 1979 2012) and was used as a residence prior to that so this charming space could suit multiple needs while providing parking for up to eight vehicles.
