About This Home
Welcome to a rare opportunity to own a historic 1820 Colonial offering both residential and commercial use in a prime Route 1 location. Formerly part of the Rankinville Salt Marsh Farm, this property provides excellent visibility with strong traffic exposure, clear sight lines, and pedestrian sidewalk access.
Inside, the building features tin ceilings, maple floors, abundant natural light, and marsh views. A working fireplace and modern heat pumps support year-round comfort. A private patio and separate paved parking provide convenience for both commercial and residential occupants.
The upper level includes cathedral ceilings with original wooden beams and knee braces. At the rear of the structure, a renovated studio apartment offers a private entry and deck, a recently updated kitchen/dining area, one bedroom, two full bathrooms, and a loft for additional living space.
This property offers flexibility for owner-occupancy, investment, or mixed-use operation.
