This charming 1916 home in Chestertown's historic district is in a quiet neighborhood next to Washington College, just a short walk from downtown and the waterfront. Three finished levels and high ceilings plus bright, natural light make the home feel airy and spacious. Historic features include original heart-pine hardwood floors and beautiful molding throughout. The first floor includes an adorable kitchen with butcher block countertops, as well as a living room, dining room, and 3/4 bathroom. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, a full bath, and a walk-in closet. The third floor offers a lofted bedroom and bonus room - perfect for a playroom, office, or workout room.
