Key Facts
Description
Nestled on a rare triple lot in one of Rockland's most enchanting neighborhoods, this historic 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers character, privacy, and timeless appeal. Approached from picturesque Shaw Avenue, a path through mature trees leads to the home and its detached carriage house/one-car garage, creating a setting that feels worlds away while remaining close to downtown amenities. A spacious deck wraps around the storybook glassed-in porch, where original windows and woodwork have been lovingly preserved. Inside, a welcoming entry showcases a beautiful Craftsman-style staircase. The expansive living room offers multiple seating areas centered around a stately fireplace with wood stove insert and views of the backyard. Coffered ceilings and original details throughout create the warmth and elegance expected in a historic home. The adjoining dining room is filled with natural light and provides a charming space for entertaining. The kitchen has been thoughtfully restored with a focus on historical authenticity, blending period character with modern convenience. Even the dishwasher is discreetly concealed behind cabinetry designed to match the original woodwork. A pantry hallway leads to the basement and provides convenient access to the carriage house. Upstairs, a grand landing leads to two bedrooms and a full bath, including one bedroom above the porch that feels like a treehouse with windows on three sides. A built-in desk creates a convenient office nook. The spacious primary suite features a renovated adjoining bath and offers enough space to potentially create a fourth bedroom. Originally built as a carriage house and converted to a residence in the late 1800s, the property retains its historic charm while offering a unique footprint extending from Shaw Avenue to Broadway and Limerock Street. The home, porch, and deck sit beneath a beautiful canopy of mature trees, creating a peaceful retreat just a short walk from downtown Rockland's renowned art scene.
