Description

Perched atop a gentle hill, this beautifully maintained 1893 Queen Anne offers the rare opportunity to own an extraordinary historic home without the burden of a restoration project. Years of thoughtful stewardship and continued investment have preserved its remarkable craftsmanship while creating a home ready to enjoy from day one. A sweeping circular driveway welcomes you to the stately porte cochère, wraparound porch, and graceful turrets. Inside, intricate woodwork, stained-glass windows, rich hardwood floors, pocket doors, and original architectural details showcase the home's timeless character. The sitting room features a beautiful period fireplace (not currently operational; chimney liner in place for future wood-burning or gas insert), while the formal dining room showcases picture-frame hardwood floors, a wood chair rail, crown molding, and rich velvet wall coverings. A charming butler's pantry offers abundant storage, and the inviting kitchen includes a 48-inch gas range, stainless steel appliances, built-ins, a woodstove, and direct access to the private patio. A bedroom, 3/4 bathroom, and convenient laundry room complete the main level. Upstairs, four sun-filled bedrooms, two bathrooms, an office, balconies, and a partially finished attic offer exceptional flexibility. A rear accessory space with a kitchenette and full bath is ideal for guests or a studio. The oversized barn/garage provides exceptional storage as well. Recent improvements include new cedar shingles and fascia on the front porch roof (2025), a new boiler (2021) with a transferable lifetime limited warranty (details available upon request), upgraded propane service (2025), electrical/GFI improvements (2025), septic pumping/inspection (2025), a new dishwasher (2024), and a new washer (2025). Located in the heart of Cambridge Village, this architecturally significant landmark seamlessly blends historic grandeur with modern comfort and move-in-ready convenience. Seller is motivated.
