Built for Jonathan D. Waldron, a Thames Street Blacksmith this Greek Revival cottage c. 1830 was in the same family for over 100 years and has had only two subsequent owners. Charm and natural light abound in this deceivingly spacious home with historic details complimented by updates for contemporary living. A large eat in kitchen with newer GE Profile appliances - refrigerator, wall oven and gas cooktop, plenty of tile counter space and cabinets frame a wall of original glass panes with south facing light. The living room off the front hallway has custom built bookcases, mantle and fireplace with a doorway leading to a center dinning room also with fireplace and mantle off of which is a room perfect for an office/guest bedroom. A discreet lavette tucked under the attractive front hallway staircase completes the first floor. The second floor has a newly renovated bathroom featuring a walk-in tiled shower. The front bedroom has two windows and built ins, second bedroom with window and lots of natural light with second doorway leading to the back staircase, and to a very generous room with built ins adaptable for a third bedroom/office/tv den. Custom interior shutters are throughout the home and original wide plank wood floors. A delightful west facing side porch with trellises overlooks a yard of mature plantings perfect for the casual gardener. Off street parking for 1-2 cars. Roof and gutters five years and less. This well loved and cared for home awaits its next steward.
