Additionally, a detached garage provides convenient parking and storage solutions. Built in 1900 on the site of a Revolutionary War battlefield as a private residence, it later served as a multi-family rental for six decades. The home holds a unique connection to local and British history, having housed Wallis Simpson, infamous for her involvement in King Edward VIII's abdication. If you seek a turn-of-the-century residence that seamlessly combines history and modern comfort, this is the one! Schedule your private showing today and step back in time while enjoying the updated features of this remarkable home.
