Property Description
A rare opportunity in Cambridge Historic District, 709 Church Street is an extensively renovated American Four-Square set on a triple corner lot with approximately 5,000 square feet of space and remarkable flexibility. This beautifully finished first floor includes 3-4 bedrooms (including a primary ensuite) and 2 additional bathrooms. Large eat-in island kitchen is gorgeous, and you can stack the soiled dishes in the (original) "dirty" kitchen/laundry area! Take advantage of these renovations living on the first floor as you take your time on finishing the 2nd and 3rd floors to your current or future desires. Finish these your way; bedrooms, guest suites, offices, studio space, gym, hobby space, media room, playroom, storage, etc. You don't need to be concerned with major systems as they are all new (including plumbing, 2 zoned HVAC, tankless water heater, and 320 amp electric service). Two additional bathrooms are ready for fixtures on the second floor. Historic charm remains with grand front and rear staircases, built-in cabinetry, millwork, wainscoting, pocket doors, architectural radiators, two original Rumford corner fireplaces, restored leaded glass at front entry, and large front/side porch. Enjoy ample off-street parking from Choptank Avenue on these three lots where there is also room for a "carriage house"/garage, workshop, boat storage and/or pool. A handicap ramp gives access to the porch and front entrance. There is an existing sprinkler system. Within blocks of historic downtown shopping and dining, water access, the Yacht Club, city marina, and waterfront parks. Also, there are nearby marinas that offer travel lifts, maintenance, and offseason storage.
