Historic Freeport Home with Original Woodwork, Fruit Gardens & She Shed Studio Step into timeless beauty and modern comfort in this 1857-built home located in the heart of Freeport. Showcasing original woodwork, hardwood floors, and French doors, this spacious home offers flexible living areas and classic character throughout. The main floor features a double entry vestibule with a large closet, an inviting living room with French doors leading to a cozy sitting or music room with fireplace, and a bright kitchen with stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar, and pass-through to a huge formal dining room (or family room) complete with wall-to-wall closets and pantry space. You'll also find a main-floor office or playroom and a full bath - perfect for today's work-from-home lifestyle. Outside, discover your own backyard retreat! A gardener's dream with fruit trees including plum, pear, apple, cherry, and pawpaw, plus blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, grapes, strawberries, asparagus, and even a sugar maple tree for homemade syrup. Relax by the firepit or let the kids play on the swing set. The detached oversized 27' wide, 2-car garage includes a loft for extra storage, and the she shed/studio (nearly 400 sq ft with electric) offers endless possibilities - ideal for a home office, art studio, guest space, or creative retreat. Upstairs features three generous bedrooms and a large full bath with both a soaking tub and separate shower. Enjoy the warmth of gas hot-water radiant heat and the comfort of new central air (2025). Additional updates include a new water line (2021) and new water heater (2020). A one-of-a-kind property offering historic charm, functional space, and an incredible outdoor lifestyle - rarely found in Freeport homes.
