Description

HIGHLY MOTIVATED SELLERS — bring us an offer! This historic 1916 home is comfortable, convenient, and move-in ready. They don't build houses like this anymore! Featuring 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, this home is adjacent to Washington College and walking distance from downtown Chestertown. Three finished levels and high ceilings make the home feel roomier than the square footage suggests. Gorgeous original heart-pine hardwood floors and beautiful molding run throughout. The mahogany-floored porch has interchangeable screens and windows, easily converting from a screen porch into a sunroom. New six-foot pressure-treated pine fence provides privacy in the backyard, perfect for children or pets to enjoy. Adjacent to the fence, the lot also has a driveway with off-street parking for two vehicles. Calling those with green thumbs - a separate fenced garden is ready for your flowers, fruits, and veggies to be planted this spring! Additional features include tankless hot water heater, high-efficiency 3-zone boiler, whole-house surge protector, and Kenmore gas range. In summer 2025, owners completed $60,000 in updates, including a NEW ROOF and fully updated electrical wiring as well as fresh interior paint. All upgrades were intended to be enjoyed by current homeowners, but they are regretfully moving to be closer to a new job.
