Property Description
This former Ship Captain's home is a testament to craftsmanship and loving care! Built in 1852 and brimming with updates, this 4 bedroom, 5 bath treasure harkens to a historic time while offering the comforts of modern living. The kitchen & butler's pantry is a chef's dream, including a professional Wolf brand gas range, a hood fan, sub-zero refrigerator, and microwave. Add granite countertops and a spacious island and you're prepared to please parties of all sizes. The dining room's gas fireplace and huge windows inspire you to linger long after your last bite. The sunroom is a perfect spot for morning coffee or yoga. Simultaneously stately & informal, the main floor's living room (with wood-burning fireplace!), library, den, mudroom, 2 bathrooms, and a second sunroom/artist's studio are a perfect backdrop for memories in the making. Options abound for relaxation upstairs, where you'll find four bedrooms - three of which have ensuite baths, closets galore (including a gloriously sized walk-in and a cedar closet), and an attic ready to store your stuff. Lofty ceilings, wood & tile floors, vintage built-ins, light fixtures and doorknobs are just a sampling of the touches that inspire awe in this extraordinary home. Outside, the scenery is serene thanks to the large backyard, lovely landscaping, a 3-car garage, and tree-lined driveway. Known as the Jordan Watts house, this abode was built 170 years ago by Captain George C. Jordan, who, along with other shipbuilders & seafarers of the time, brought the gorgeous & grand Greek Revival style to Thomaston's main street. Delighting its dwellers and passers-by to this day, this property proudly presides over the Thomaston Green directly across the street, acres of conservation land behind the home, and the Georges Highland Path just steps away. Thomaston's darling downtown amenities are within easy reach of this special place. This precious piece of history is ready for its next chapter!
