The restoration...Step into Spring at the iconic Ira Norton house! Dating back to 1906, this distinguished residence holds a rich heritage as one of Skowhegan's premier homes. Following a period of vacancy and neglect, the property has undergone an extensive restoration, meticulously revitalized to its former glory with no detail overlooked. Upon crossing the threshold, you'll instantly notice the ambiance of a newly restored home infused with the original charm and allure of the early 20th century. The restoration has preserved elements such as the leaded glass foyer, the stately sliding pocket door in the parlor, original fireplace mantel, and handcrafted wood floors, and portions of the grand staircase. Every facet, from the intricate interior doors to the detailed sheetrock and baseboard trim, reflects a dedication to the home's heritage. Although many of the original features remain, the residence has been updated with modern amenities. From the brand-new kitchen boasting solid surface counters and stainless steel appliances to the two and a half freshly appointed bathrooms. Luxurious touches are found thorough, including a tile floor in the primary suite and the convenience of a washer and dryer now situated on the second floor. Efficiency meets elegance with features that rival those of a new construction. From the basement to the attic ceiling, the home boasts spray foam insulation, ensuring optimal energy efficiency. Other notable additions include a new roof, on-demand heating system, oversized double-hung vinyl windows, updated plumbing, electrical, and siding. Additional highlights elevate the property's appeal, including a partially finished 3rd floor, awaiting your personal touch, a carriage house ripe for future expansion, a wrap-around driveway, and a welcoming covered porch. This is an opportunity not to be missed—an impeccable mix of historic grandeur and contemporary comfort. A comprehensive list of renovations and restorations is available.
