Unique, historical Brick and Marble building offers many possibilities. Originally built as a gift to the town of Sandy Point as a town library from heirs of the Alexander Hamilton family, the town felt that they couldn't afford to maintain such a property during the Depression and declined the gift. This stately building is built of brick with substantial marble trim. The current owners have started the renovation, it is ready for your vision. There is also a slab in place for a garage. Water views from the 2nd floor, 3 pretty acres of land. Once in a lifetime opportunity!
