Traditional Design, Laid Back Living - Built to serve as a rooming house for summer tourists at the turn of the century, 37 Quincy Avenue became a modernized residence in the 1960’s. The current home owners embarked on a major remodel in 2005. That year, the octagonal turret, wrap around porch & second floor addition were designed. The house took on an entirely new look and these extensions are now valued as the premier spaces in the house on both floors. The long views of the creek through the seasonal changes are captivating... Although grand, this Victorian home is decidedly unstuffy within. An open concept main floor makes for modern functionality. Exposed wood details, use of natural materials like stone and lots of sunlight create a warm, laid back vibe. Central air, gas fuel, and updated kitchen and baths combined with special features like balconies, an artist's loft and hand-hewn double stone fireplace make this house as functional as it is full of character.
