Welcome to the "Gingerbread House!" A fabulous opportunity to own a delightful piece of Westport's history. In the original part of the house, dating back to 1860, you will find what is now the charm filled dining room but was once believed to be a one room school house. Feel the history as you walk on the original wide plank floors! The back part of the house was thoughtfully added in the 1960's and blends seamlessly with the rest of the house, adding function and space. The over sized and very elegant living room has a wonderful wood burning fireplace for cozy Winter evenings and large windows looking out to the private back yard. The adjacent den,which could also be used as an office or converted into a first floor master bedroom, has masses of natural light from a large bay window and two sets of French doors opening on to the terrace. Three good sized bedrooms upstairs, including a large master with en suite, complete this much loved home. Expansion opportunity also exists in the huge attic over the garage - easily accessible through a door on the 2nd floor hallway. This house has tremendous potential and is ready for the next owner to elevate it to its full beauty. The interior of the house has just been freshly painted and all the hardwood floors have been stained and sealed to a gleaming espresso finish. Super convenient to train, schools, beach and downtown and located in the hugely popular Long Lots neighborhood. House sold "as is".
