This classic New England gem is perfect for those who appreciate historic homes. Located on the corner of Main and prestigious Mechanic Street, (home to Sea Captains and Rockland leaders of the time) the house sits on a beautifully landscaped quarter-acre lot. Built in 1910 the house was lovingly restored in 2011 retaining much of the original details and flourishes that make homes of this era so interesting, while upgrading essentials of modern living including new wiring, water pipes, and insulation. The house has recently been used as a single-family home with four bedrooms and two and a half baths but the second floor also offers in-law apartment or summer rental capability, previously being used as a highly successful short-term rental for years. The first floor features a large eat-in kitchen, bedroom, full bathroom, and a huge sunny double living room with ten-foot ceilings and two beautiful bowed windows. The second floor offers two bedrooms and large living room or a third bedroom, and a kitchenette. The bright kitchen space could be easily converted to an art/crafts studio or a home office depending on your needs. With a front and back staircase there is the option of a private entrance in the rear of the house. In the solid basement you'll find walls of locally mined two feet wide granite slabs, a poured cement floor and recent insulation. Outside, the elegant trim has been restored just as its beautiful original design but using modern materials that require less upkeep. The beautiful slate roof is original to the home and in excellent condition. Sit on the front porch and watch the world as you enjoy your coffee, wine or a good book or step over to the garden patio to entertain family and friends. A special location, you're just a few steps to the public park and boat launch, Children's and Steam museums as well as downtown Rockland with its abundance of shops, museums and restaurants.
