Built in 1805 for Joshua Beckford, this ultra-charming house sits back from the street behind a brick driveway. Enter through the archway to the gated yard and step back 220 years to a gentler time. This home will captivate you with its wide pine floors, fireplaces, exposed beams and numerous original details. Modern conveniences are seamlessly blended and include a stainless and marble kitchen, mini-split a/c, 1.5 marble baths and large French doors to the private brick patio and garden oasis. Even boasts an irrigation system including the window boxes! The attic provides convenient loft space for artists, students or office along w/add'l storage. A bright basement has plenty of storage + laundry plus there's 2 car parking. River Street is renowned for its annual holiday decorations and twice yearly block parties. This quaint residence w/secret garden is in the McIntire Historic District steps from downtown, train & library. This will not disappoint-a MUST see for antique home lovers!
