Welcome to a rare opportunity to own a piece of timeless New England charm in the heart of Rumford's historic district. This striking 1902 red Victorian townhome is rich in character, history, and potential--ready for its next chapter. Step inside and you'll immediately feel the warmth of a bygone era. The inviting living room showcases a beautiful original fireplace, creating a cozy focal point for gatherings or quiet evenings at home. With 1,850 square feet of living space, this home offers a generous layout across two levels, featuring three bedrooms and a rare 1.5-bath configuration--an uncommon find in the neighborhood. While the home retains its historic charm, it does require work and presents an excellent opportunity for those looking to restore and personalize a classic property. Key structural updates have already been addressed, including a newer roof (just 4 years old) and a newly installed dedicated sewer line in November 2024--providing a solid foundation for future improvements. Additional highlights include off-street parking and a location in one of Rumford's most peaceful and sought-after historic neighborhoods. This property is a perfect project for individuals seeking their next value-add opportunity, or for cash buyers looking to bring their vision to life in a truly unique home. With its distinctive architecture, spacious layout, and undeniable charm, the potential here is exceptional. Bring your ideas, restore its beauty, and make this historic Victorian shine once again. Schedule your showing today and imagine the possibilities.
