Property Description

Just a short .2-mile stroll from the center of Rockport Village, this classic 1890 Greek Revival is a rare find. From the front door, it's an easy walk to the harbor, shops, restaurants, library, post office, and all the everyday conveniences that make village living so appealing. Set on an unusually large and level .94-acre lot, the property combines the charm of an established in-town setting with space that is increasingly hard to find. Mature trees, perennial gardens, an expansive lawn, covered porch, and stone patio create inviting outdoor spaces for relaxing, gardening, and gathering with family and friends. A substantial barn adds tremendous flexibility, while public water and sewer service and Harbor Village District zoning allow for a variety of permitted future uses. Inside, the home reflects the craftsmanship of its era, with its original character beautifully preserved. High ceilings, glowing wood floors, handsome architectural details, and generously proportioned rooms create a sense of warmth and openness throughout. Sunlight fills the living spaces, giving the home an unmistakably cheerful and welcoming feel. Lovingly maintained over the years, the house balances historic character with thoughtful improvements that support comfortable modern living. Recent updates include a newer roof, replacement windows, and a spray-foamed foundation for improved energy efficiency. The renovated kitchen features ample workspace and a large pantry, while the home's traditional floor plan offers both functionality and flexibility. Currently configured as a two-family residence, the layout was adapted with minimal impact to the home's original design and could easily continue in its present form or be returned to a gracious single-family home. With 2,762 square feet of living space, a remarkable lot, and an exceptional village location, this is a property that offers immediate enjoyment and future possibilities in the heart of Rockport.
