About This Home

Stunning historic home in the heart of Belfast. Feel the history as you walk up the front path to the old-world, elegant entrance of this 5 plus bedroom, 3.5-bath residence, complete with a rare and authentic carriage house. Inside, soaring 12-foot ceilings, original moldings, and a grand entry with a sweeping staircase set the tone for gracious living. Sunlight fills the formal living and dining rooms, where working fireplaces and gleaming wood floors add warmth and charm. A large eat-in kitchen opens to a sunny family room overlooking the stone patio, perfect for alfresco dining and entertaining. A classic butler's pantry provides beauty and practicality with glassed cabinets and a copper sink. The cozy library offers an inviting retreat for reading or working from home. The wrap-around glassed-in porch and expansive lawns provide even more space for gathering, play, or garden expansion. On the third floor you will find 3 rooms of flexible space, ideal for an office, studio, or private guest retreat, with distant views of Belfast Harbor adding to the allure. The historic carriage house retains its original woodwork, horse stalls, and a spacious open second floor, offering a wealth of possibilities. With vision, it could be transformed into a guest house, creative workspace, or in-home business, blending history with modern utility. Just a short stroll to Belfast's vibrant shops, acclaimed restaurants, and scenic harbor, this property pairs historic character with coastal convenience.
