Property Description
This historic home offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Sandwich's past! Originally constructed as a schoolhouse in 1859, it was relocated to its current spot in 1890, retaining much of its charm and character. Recent updates provide modern comfort, including two fully renovated bathrooms, a refreshed kitchen with quartz countertops, and beautifully refinished wide plank knotty pine floors. The home boasts elegant crown molding, soaring 10-foot ceilings, and the added convenience of a second-floor laundry room. Set on a spacious 1/3-acre lot, the property features a large backyard perfect for outdoor gatherings, complete with an above-ground pool (only two years old). The garage includes a walk-up loft, offering ample storage or potential for a creative space. With a solid roof that was replaced just five years ago, the home has a sturdy foundation but still allows for some personal touches to make it truly your own. A bit of TLC could restore even more of its historic charm!
