Property Description
Located in the heart of downtown Ansonborough neighborhood, this stately home exemplifies history, charm and downtown living. Within walking distance are some of the city's most popular restaurants, shops and galleries, but the residential street offers a welcome respite from the hustle and bustle of city life. The expansive home was built in 1815 by ship builder James Marsh and includes a main residence and a three-story carriage house. Many of the home's original touches remain including imported English brick, heart pine floors, detailed molding and wainscotting, marble fireplaces, cypress doors and more. The property exudes curb appeal with two levels of piazzas, oriented to capitalize on the harbor breezes, and a large, manicured lot. The main house has a traditional floor plan
