Property Description
Stately Georgian Revival Home in historic Lunenburg. This classically styled home is set on an expansive estate-like lot with a mixture of mature trees and over 200 feet of winding slate walkways. One of Lunenburg’s most recognized homes, built to the highest standards by the prominent Powers family in 1936.
Quality abounds in every detail, from structural framing to finish work. Gorgeous cherry woodwork & doors throughout the main floor make a statement of formal elegance and sophistication. Massive main parlor with striking coffered ceiling & walk-out portico. Every room is spacious & bright, with large 6-over-6 windows, & hardwood floors. The 2nd floor boasts four large bedrooms, each with large closets, and Master with ensuite. The bright and sunny main bath boasts vintage Italian glass tiles.
Additional features include 3 working fireplaces, double in-ground heated garage & paved driveway. A Large walk-out Media/Rec Room is on the lower level with a large stone fireplace. Original features include unique stainless steel countertops in kitchen, vintage butler’s pantry, crystal door knobs on every door, bedroom doors with rare automatic felt dampening systems, AND the original builder’s blue prints. With 1400 sq ft of additional space awaiting development in the full attic, this house has great potential for a profitable Inn or B&B.
Exterior walls are insulated with original rockwool insulation, & attic floor insulation upgraded to R-40 with blown-in cellulose. Current owners have undertaken many other upgrades in the past 2 years. All roof surfaces on main house and porticos were reshingled in 2008 with high quality 35-year rated shingles. Exterior has been completely stripped and repainted with great attention to detail. Living Room fireplace fitted with a high-efficiency EPA certified insert. As another energy saving strategy, an auxiliary electric hot water heater installed in 2008 as a summer hot water source.
