Surrounded by classic early 20th-century homes, this property captures the timeless appeal and welcoming feel that define the Baldwin community, part of the Town of Hempstead and prized for its strong sense of neighborhood, diversity, and easy access to the South Shore. Twain st and all the surrounding streets are named after prominent and highly influential writers of the 19th century. The home is move-in ready and totally functional with a full basement, main level and 2nd story. The kitchen could use some of today’s modern updates, thus leaving plenty of opportunity to personalize and elevate its style and comfort over time. Original charm blends with everyday functionality, making it an ideal canvas for buyers who appreciate history but envision their own modern touches. The top level offers room to add an additional bathroom, providing valuable potential for future expansion and increased convenience. Electric is 200 amp service and the home has a generator hookup already in place for added convenience. Commuting is a breeze with the train just a short distance away, and you’ll enjoy close proximity to shopping, dining, parks, beaches, Freeport’s nautical mile and other local amenities—all while maintaining that classic Long Island residential atmosphere. This is more than a house; it’s an opportunity to become part of a well-loved community and create a home that grows with you. Properties like this don’t come along often—miss the chance to view it, and you may regret letting this gem pass you by.
