Do you like cookies but not cookie-cutter homes? Then this home is for you! Quaint and unique historic dance hall converted into a stunning residential home with one-level living like no other. As you enter the home, you are immediately greeted by an expansive 1562 square-foot living space that is perfect for entertaining guests or enjoying time with family. The 17-foot beadboard barrel ceiling, beadboard walls and red pine wood flooring give this room an abundance of originality. The 6-panel oak doors, ornate door hinges, glass doorknobs and hand-cut oak trim throughout the house will have you in awe. The kitchen features a vaulted ceiling with three skylights, granite countertops and a generous amount of cabinets. The dining room provides a warm ambience with plenty of natural light flowing in. The original stage has been transformed into the master bedroom suite with a large walk-in closet and sliding doors to a personal deck. The master bathroom features an over-sized custom tile shower with a barrel ceiling, as well as a luxurious claw foot tub. The front room space has the potential to become a third bedroom. The spacious basement provides ample room for whatever you desire it to be: garage, workshop, man cave or even gym. The low maintenance yard allows for more time to be spent relaxing or entertaining outdoors on the 480 square-foot deck. The property is conveniently located to I-84, hiking trails, recreational areas and the UCONN campus in Storrs. This move-in ready home offers the perfect combination of history, character and modern amenities. Don’t miss your chance to own this one-of-a-kind home and a piece of history.
