17 Maplewood Avenue

Experience the charm and craftsmanship of a bygone era in this turn of the century Victorian beautifully situated on a peaceful village street a few blocks from schools, shopping and minutes to I89. The original architectural details and period craftsmanship remain beautifully preserved. Significant updates, including replacement windows, improved mechanical systems, vinyl siding, portions of the electrical system, roofing, and updated main floor bathroom provide comfort and convenience while honoring the home’s rich heritage. The first floor features a welcoming foyer, elegant living room, sitting room, formal dining room, breakfast nook, and an exceptionally large family room that looks out a large picture window onto the private grounds and ancient stately trees. The family room serves as the heart of the home for gathering with family and friends or a large Christmas tree. Upstairs is four bedrooms, full bathroom, including a large primary bedroom with a walk-in closet. One of the bedrooms has a stairway leading to a full attic for storage and/or additional living space. The outdoor spaces are equally impressive. Sit with family or friends on wonderful warm summer evenings on the original wraparound covered front porch or entertain on the large rear deck accessible from the family room. There is a large gazebo surrounded by very mature landscaping that would be a great place to unwind in the quiet. Magnificent old maples and established landscaping create a picturesque setting that offers privacy and beauty. The former large chicken coop, in wonderful condition, could easily be transformed into a playhouse or workshop. A rare and valuable feature is the original carriage house. Plenty of space for vehicles and there are 2 horse stalls and a second floor great for storage, large workspace, studio or living unit. Solidly built, rich in character and full of possibilities, this exceptional Victorian offers a wonderful opportunity to own a piece of local history.
