About This Home

Located in Camden's highly desirable Chestnut Street Historic District, this Italianate gem offers the perfect in-town lifestyle with the harbor and village just two blocks away. Classic period details blend seamlessly with comfortable living spaces and thoughtful refinements throughout. A wide wraparound porch extends to an expansive deck, leading down to a newly designed stone patio and a private backyard framed by mature trees and plantings. Inside, the flexible floor plan provides gracious and inviting spaces. The main level includes a large living and dining room with a wood-burning fireplace, a cook's kitchen with updated appliances, and a spacious library/office with built-in bookcases. A separate sitting room and media room completes the first floor, creating a variety of options for work, relaxation, and entertainment.
Upstairs, the primary suite with a peak of Camden Harbor features a gas fireplace, oversized closets, and a luxurious bath with soaking tub and walk-in shower. Several additional bedrooms with abundant light and neighborhood views share a full bath. The lower level opens to the stone patio and includes a private woodworking shop with a full bath—easily adaptable for use as a guest suite, studio, or additional living space. 86 Chestnut Street is truly a Camden treasure, combining historic charm, modern comforts, and an exceptional location.
