Description
Step into the captivating world of 285 East Street, where historic roots meet modern luxury across 2, 580 sq ft on 3.05 idyllic acres. Originally built in 1900 as a savvy two-family home, this fully updated residence showcases original character-gleaming wideboard floors, charming fireplace, exposed wood beams-paired with top-tier upgrades: a brand-new boiler (Dec 2024), electric hot water heater, drilled well, and full water-treatment system; complete electrical overhaul; updated baths; circa-2010 vinyl replacement windows; efficient pellet stove; and freshly painted interiors. More than a refresh, it's a thoughtful transformation: two bedrooms merged into a lavish, insulated master suite (2021), a remodeled laundry and entry, and a living room stripped to the studs, re-insulated, and dry-walled for efficiency and style. The original duplex layout remains intact-ideal for rental income or multigenerational living-yet it also functions beautifully as one grand estate, with configured spaces for in-law suites, home offices, or guest retreats. By blending timeless detail with turnkey modern comfort, this home delivers rare emotional appeal and real-world flexibility-creating a natural sense of urgency and FOMO among buyers., Step outside to a detached 2-car garage with loft-perfectly suited as a workshop, creative studio, or storage space-and a spacious 1620 shed ideal for garden tools or hobby gear. The lush, 3+ acre grounds seamlessly flow into an adjacent park, granting effortless access to morning strolls, picnics, or playtime in picturesque green space. Yet all the conveniences of Stafford Springs await just minutes away: schools, cozy cafes and bakeries on Main Street, local favorites like Stafford Coffee Company, plus easy commuting options. Whether you're entertaining under the open sky in the expansive yard, pursuing a multigenerational lifestyle-or tapping into rental income via the original duplex layout-or simply craving a peaceful parkside retreat with truly adaptable living spaces, 285 East Street over-delivers. It strikes the perfect balance between treasured historic character and smart modern upgrades, all wrapped in a coveted location steps from an adjacent park and Stafford Springs' best amenities. This rare offering combines charm, convenience, and versatility-and once discerning buyers discover its potential, it won't be available for long. Agent Related.Show Description
