An extraordinary Victorian mansion showcasing 8 grand bedrooms, 4 elegantly appointed bathrooms, and 2 full gourmet kitchens. Soaring 11’ ceilings, original restored hardwood floors, dual HVAC systems, and 3 water heaters ensure both historic charm and modern comfort. Custom-made tall Andersen windows, a premium metal roof, exquisite Scamozzi columns, handcrafted railings, bespoke doors, and a beautifully built retaining wall elevate the architectural presence of this estate. Over $325,000 invested in a meticulous restoration of this rare historical masterpiece, once home to a former Mayor of Suffolk. Perfect for multigenerational living or configured as two distinct luxury rental units. Ideally situated in the heart of downtown Suffolk, steps from boutique shops, fine dining, and cultural venues. Owner/agent.
