The vast, open spaces are perfect for entertaining, w/ the main level featuring a large island kitchen, updated appliances, & an open-concept living area that is ideal for hosting family & friends. While the home exudes historic charm, it has been thoughtfully updated w/ modern amenities. A high-efficiency heating system ensures comfort throughout the seasons, & the updated bathrooms, plumbing/electrical systems provide peace of mind. The original wood floors, made from old ash baseball bats, add a unique & authentic touch, & their double thickness is a testament to the home's past as a bustling hotel with a dance floor. This home offers endless possibilities for its new owners.

The property also features 2 working wood stoves, adding to the cozy & inviting atmosphere. There's even another massive 20' x 20' utility room w/ high ceilings that could be a first floor bedroom suite or primary art/music studio. The grounds are ripe for restoration.
