Property Description

Welcome to The Jewel of Winchester, a remarkable 1885 stone landmark filled w history, exceptional craftsmanship and rare mixed-use potential come together. Set on a 203' x 114' lot and offering 3,800+ sq ft above grade, this distinctive property has stood through generations while retaining the architectural details of a century home: soaring ceilings, substantial baseboards and mouldings, beautiful millwork, and an impressive staircase. Generously proportioned rooms, 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms provide the scale and flexibility to suit both everyday living and something more imaginative.a rare split/mixed-use zoning configuration, open the door to possibilities seldom found in a property of this character and scale. Formerly a bed and breakfast, the home already has a history of welcoming both residents and guests. A main-floor bedroom w ensuite and private exterior entrance further enhances its versatility, lending itself beautifully to multi-gen living, guest accommodations, workspace or other permitted uses. The property itself is equally extraordinary. Extensive parking is complemented by two substantial outbuildings: a heated 50' x 24' shop and an additional 50' x 30' building with oversized bays, providing exceptional space for storage, hobbies, workspace or uses compatible with the property's zoning. Mature gardens extend along the northwest side of the property, where a permanent gazebo creates a charming setting. For those drawn to heritage architecture, the craftsmanship is difficult to replicate; for those with an entrepreneurial vision, the zoning, outbuildings, parking and scale invite exploration; and for those simply searching for an extraordinary home, The Jewel of Winchester offers the opportunity to become the next steward of a property that has been part of the community since 1885. Rich in history. Remarkable in detail. Rare in opportunity. 528 St. Lawrence Street is ready for its next chapter. (id:7434)
