Welcome to one of Denton's most charming historic homes, where timeless Victorian architecture, thoughtful updates, and small-town living come together beautifully. Situated on a picturesque corner lot in Denton's historic district, this lovingly maintained five-bedroom home offers more than 2,300 square feet of character-filled living space, abundant natural light, original architectural details, and inviting indoor and outdoor gathering spaces. The gracious covered front portico, mature landscaping, fenced yard, covered side deck, and expansive rear deck create wonderful spaces for relaxing, entertaining, gardening, and enjoying Eastern Shore living. Located within walking distance of downtown Denton's shops, restaurants, community events, and everyday conveniences, the home offers both charm and convenience. The third floor provides flexible bonus space ideal for a home office, studio, reading retreat, playroom, guest overflow, or additional storage. Surrounded by views of a beautiful mature oak tree, the space has a cozy treehouse feel that makes it especially appealing as a creative workspace or remote-work retreat. While the third floor is not connected to the home's central HVAC system, it has been comfortably used year-round with supplemental heating and cooling units. Thoughtful updates help provide peace of mind while preserving the home's historic character, including a 2018 roof, updated electrical panel, Whirlpool range (2019), refrigerator (2017), microwave (2025), Frigidaire Gallery dishwasher with new plumbing and electrical installation (2025), HVAC air handler (2012), and water heater (2011). Perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of the Eastern Shore, the home is approximately 20 minutes to Easton, 50 minutes to Annapolis, 1 hour to Rehoboth Beach, and 90 minutes to Ocean City. This is more than a house—it is a home with warmth, history, character, and heart, offering a lifestyle that blends historic beauty with everyday livability.
