19 Catherine St

Built circa 1860 for C.T. Hopkins, this home is located in the desirable Kay/Catherine/Bellevue area. It is a Mansard roof Victorian with an elegant arched doorway that opens to a broad central hall and curved staircase. The high ceilings, large rooms, and intricate moldings make this home comfortable for family living and entertaining. Legally considered a 2-family home, there are 5 bedrooms, and 4-1/2 baths. The private third floor can be used as a legal separate unit for additional income or a guest suite or caretaker's unit (2 bedrooms, great room, and 2 baths.) The exterior is wood clapboard that has a nice street presence. This home has been very well maintained. There is an office in the dry basement with mini-split A/C, as well as a complete kitchen for outside entertaining access, a commercial laundry and workshop. The house has gas heat and 200 amp electric service. A storage shed is on the property. There is a private very large terrace for summer living and entertaining. This home is presently used as a single family home that accommodates the caretaker in the 5-room third floor apartment. This home is within a block to Bellevue Avenue and easy walking distance to town as well as close to beaches. There is ample parking to accommodate over 9 cars.
