Description:

Step into a truly one-of-a-kind home where history, character, and lifestyle come together. Originally built in 1848 as the historic Staffordville School, this distinctive property blends timeless charm with thoughtful updates, all set against the picturesque backdrop of Staffordville Lake. The spacious eat-in kitchen has been newly renovated, featuring new vinyl flooring, stainless steel appliances, and a wood stove capable of heating the entire home, plus a convenient half bath and laundry on the main level. Hardwood floors flow through the dining room into the expansive living room, creating warm, inviting spaces - with potential to convert the living room into a first-floor primary bedroom for added flexibility. Upstairs, 9-foot ceilings highlight three bedrooms - two with lake views - along with a newly renovated full bathroom and balcony access. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced yard with a classic white picket fence, an oversized deck ideal for entertaining, and a second-floor balcony perfect for taking in lake views. Covered space beneath the deck provides parking and additional storage. Recent updates include a new driveway, gutters and downspouts, screens, boiler, and electrical panel, with a roof approximately 15 years old. Optional Staffordville Lake Association membership adds value with beach access and boating. Just a short walk to Staffordville Beach, playground, and pavilion, this home offers a rare blend of history, charm, and lake living.
