Some homes have character. Others have a story to tell. This remarkable Victorian is one of those rare treasures that seldom comes along! Offered for the first time in decades, this grand old home captures the charm and timeless appeal of historic downtown Montrose. Built in 1910, the home welcomes you with beautiful hardwood floors, generous living spaces, and a sprawling floor plan reminiscent of a bygone era. Spacious living and formal dining rooms are perfect for gathering and entertaining. Step through gorgeous French doors off the dining room into a versatile flex space, where a wall of windows fills the room with natural light. Two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and an exceptionally large, light-filled laundry room complete the comfortable living spaces. A partial basement provides two additional rooms ideal for storage. Situated on three city lots totaling approximately .22 acres, the property is surrounded by mature landscaping with the romantic feel of an English garden. Imagine restoring the grounds to their full beauty, enjoying peaceful afternoons beneath the trees, or entertaining on the expansive covered patio. Seven established fruit trees add beauty and the enjoyment of fresh, homegrown fruit. Adding to the appeal is a detached former garage converted into charming guest quarters, complete with a bedroom and bathroom (no kitchen). Perfect for visiting family, a creative retreat, or potential Airbnb and short-term rental opportunities. Lovingly held for decades, this special property is ready for its next chapter. Move-in ready with opportunities for thoughtful updates and a little TLC, it offers something increasingly difficult to find: historic character, generous space, and the chance to make a truly special property your own. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Montrose history! Very recent appraisal is for $555,000 making this an incredible investment!
