69 Old Arsenal Road, Westport

HANDSOME, 3000+ SF VILLAGE LANDMARK in the center of Westport, NY. Tons of space and historic character, as well as lake views from a pair of covered porches (1st & 2nd floors) AND deeded beach access to Lake Champlain! The 1st floor has 2 large front parlors with fireplaces, a long central dining room area with bay window and wood stove, and a spacious eat-in kitchen at the back of the house with loads of counter space, a separate pantry, newer appliances, including a gas range, and adjacent half bath and laundry room. On the 2nd floor, there are 5 spacious bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a large covered porch with lake views off of a long central hallway with front and back staircases. In addition, there is a full walk-up attic story with dormers, allowing for additional living space or just plenty of room to store old family treasures! The house has beautiful period woodwork throughout; decorative door and window surrounds, multi-paneled doors, an elaborate Victorian era main staircase, and combination of original wide pine board floors and turn-of-the century hardwood floors. The house has a 200amp electrical service, heats using a combination of Rennai propane monitor heaters (Kitchen, DR, LR and cellar), electric baseboard (upstairs bath) and a large woodstove, and is conveniently hooked up to village water & sewer systems. This historic home is set on a nicely landscaped quarter acre corner lot just south of Ballard Park, so easy walking distance to shops along Main Street, as well as the library, bank, post office, marina, & golf course. In addition, the property includes a large ca1900 carriage barn in need of restoration (for whatever use you can imagine!), as well as deeded beach access to Lake Champlain, only a short walk down along Old Arsenal Road, a safe and quiet residential street. This is an amazing property, with a large amount of space --and an equal amount of old time charm -- for the price!!! New to market and just listed at $425,000.
