Step back in time as you enter through the doors of this historic cottage known as 'The Clarkson-Knowles Cottage' c. 1834. Exquisitely situated, this original sandstone structure radiates from the main street. As you walk on the original hand-laid wooden floors that have graced this home, you will feel the sense of time as you explore just over 2,000 sq. ft. floor plan. Hand-scraped wooden beams adorn the loft like, sunken kitchen space which offers an intimate and cozy gathering space for the day. Oozing charm and hard to find vintage features throughout, this home offers its own unique story and legacy that connects the past with the present. The upstairs offers 3 bedrooms with a full bathroom and a half bathroom on the main floor. This home is within walking distance to shopping, dining, and nearby medical facilities.
