Timeless Grandeur on the Waterfront-Step into a world of historic elegance and boundless potential at this rare, waterfront gem. Nestled on over 3 acres of gently rolling grounds and boasting an impressive 383 feet of private bayfront, this iconic 1896 Queen Anne Victorian stands as a testament to craftsmanship, character, and charm. Spanning nearly 9,000 square feet across three expansive levels, the home is a pristine, unspoiled masterpiece of original 19th-century architecture. From the moment you pass through the grand double arched doors, you’re greeted with soaring ceilings, ornate moldings, leaded glass windows, and hand-carved woodwork—all echoing the grace and grandeur of a bygone era. With 8 spacious bedrooms, 7 fireplaces, a dramatic spiral staircase housed in its own turret, and a fourth-floor attic with endless possibilities, this estate is as functional as it is breathtaking. Wraparound covered porches, private balconies, and oversized windows offer uninterrupted views of the bay, bathing the interiors in natural light and serene coastal beauty. Outside, discover English-style gardens, a charming gazebo, and a 40-foot swimming pool surrounded by stone patios—perfect for entertaining or private relaxation. Whether preserved as a historic showpiece or thoughtfully modernized to suit a contemporary lifestyle, this extraordinary estate offers limitless opportunity to create a one-of-a-kind legacy property.
