Unbelievable opportunity! The Victorian Lady, as it is known, is an impressive home with a fantastic history. It's worth considering for it architectural history alone. Originally built in 1835, the house is a combination of three architectural styles: Greek Revival (1835), Second Empire (1876) and Eastlake (1880). All of the flooring throughout the home is beautiful hardwood. The house was run as a Bed and Breakfast, known as the Victorian Lady, until 2014. It now offered out on a short-term rental basis. When you enter the rear of the home from the parking area, you are greeted with a large, well appointed kitchen with a nice seating area and a breakfast bar. There is a large pantry/laundry room with access from the kitchen or dining room. You will also find a good size full bathroom. From the kitchen you enter into a large, beautifully appointed dining room with period unpainted woodwork, large dining table and size appropriate chandelier. Rounding out the first floor is a well appointed sitting room and a large living room with a gas burning fireplace. The fireplace mantle was hand carved in Thailand. You will also find two sets of French doors leading to the beautiful Eastlake influenced covered porches. The main entry is gorgeous with a beautiful, well lit, ornate staircase beckoning you to the second floor. Here you'll find a playful sitting room and five large bedrooms, Three have private bathrooms, two have a shared bathroom. All of the rooms are named. The Carriage House was built in 1993 and has a suite above it with a fill bathroom. The woodwork and ornate, period details of the home are exquisite! The more elaborate wall coverings are imported from Scotland. The home is across the street from Ballard Park,. It has nice views of Lake Champlain. It is a short walk to the shops, marina and Golf Course. Being sold fully furnished!
