This elegant 1870 Victorian exudes charm and has captivating, picturesque views of the river and mountains, with downtown just moments away. Inside, the beautifully kept home features ten large rooms, all with high ceilings, hardwood floors and floor to ceiling windows. Distinctive elements include a grand front staircase, and a convenient rear staircase. Most of the wood trim has never been painted giving the house a view into the past as it may have looked after completion 154 years ago. The main floor has a grand sitting room and den and a formal dining room overlooking the large screened in porch with dramatic views of the CT River. Additionally, there's a delightful kitchen, and a convenient bath. The mudroom off the kitchen leads to the laundry room. Upstairs you will find four bedrooms, along with two baths, and a spacious bonus room. A paved driveway leads to the attached garage which accommodates two vehicles and provides storage for garden tools. There is plenty of extra parking for visitors there as well. Outside, the expansive backyard, level and enhanced with mature trees and vibrant gardens, offers a serene retreat. Located on a quiet tree-lined street, with little traffic, it feels more like a country house. In short, a great home oozing charm on a quiet street with incredible views of the Connecticut River and Wantastiquet Mountain from its rear lawn, and down town conveniences just a short distance away.
