Description

A rare opportunity on historic Water Street in the heart of Shelburne!

At the rear of the home, an additional room with a past life as a hair studio and a separate exterior entrance, provides even more flexibilityideal as a storefront, studio, office, workspace, or bonus living area. Upstairs, you’ll find a spacious primary bedroom with a closet, two additional good-sized bedrooms, and the home’s full bathroom, complete with a charming clawfoot tub. Outside, the beautiful backyard provides plenty of room to garden, entertain, or simply enjoy your own outdoor space. Gravel parking, municipal water, and municipal sewer add everyday convenience.
