Property Description
Nestled in the heart of Milton's historic district, this beautifully preserved c. 1888 Federal-style
home offers a rare opportunity to become part of its storied past. Listed on the National
Register of Historic Places, this quaint 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home blends classic charm with
modern convenience, all set on a 57' x 104' corner lot within city limits.
Step onto the welcoming front porch, where you can greet neighbors and enjoy the rhythm of
small-town life. The private rear yard, complete with fencing, lush gardens, and three storage
sheds, provides a peaceful retreat. Inside, the first floor features a cozy living room, study,
kitchen, and a rear sunroom, along with a convenient half bath and an attached outdoor
shower—perfect for rinsing off after a day at the beach.
The second floor offers two inviting bedrooms and a full bath, while a spacious third-level
bedroom, accessible via a spiral staircase, adds charm and versatility. Parking is a premium in
town, and this property boasts a rare three private parking spots. Recent updates, including a
new roof and exterior siding, ensure both comfort and longevity.
Living here means more than just owning a historic home—it's about becoming part of a vibrant
community. Milton is home to an active historical society and museum, a flourishing arts
scene, and year-round festivals, concerts, art shows, and performances at the Milton
Theatre. From this ideal location, you're just a short walk to parks, restaurants, boutique
shops, and the library.
Experience small-town living at its finest—where history, culture, and community come
together in a truly special place.
