Uncompromising History meets Modern Execution: A Pristine 1825 (1825 according to County records, 1900 consensus) Historic Estate in Essex , a Charming Folk Victorian
Welcome to 2737 NYS Route 22, an architectural masterpiece offering a rare blend of flawless structural preservation and updated interior comforts. Built in 1825, this 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom estate stands as arguably the sturdiest historic home in the Essex Hamlet. For buyers seeking period charm without plaster repair headaches, the interior offers an exceptional canvas: smooth, newer drywall paired with contemporary recessed lighting that brilliantly illuminates the grand rooms and beautiful historic hardwood flooring. The home proudly retains its unchanged architectural woodwork and flawless, ornate cast-iron radiators providing steady, radiant heat.
The structural integrity is unmatched, featuring a laser-straight stone foundation with zero defects and perfectly true rooflines. The half-acre parcel is a multi-structure powerhouse. Behind the residence sits a rock-solid, 2-story historic barn anchored by massive, hand-hewn timbers, alongside a newer, immaculate detached carriage house ready for a boat, vehicles, or workshop gear.
Positioned in a premier village corridor just across the road from the water, the property backs up to the ferry transit lot--providing effortless access for commuters and summer residents. While maintaining excellent street-level privacy, select vantage points and the second story yield enticing views of Lake Champlain. Inside, the original fireplace was removed, leaving a clean slate primed for a custom restoration. Incredible potential awaits in the 252 sq ft attic, featuring remarkably tall ceilings ready to be finished into a luxury suite or loft. Bring your design finishes to the functional kitchen and own the most structurally perfect, updated 1825 gem on the block. Offered ''as-is.''
