Description

This is your chance to own one of the most prominent homes in Chestertown's Historic District already completely upgraded and finished to suit. The Tilley Residence was rebuilt in 1863 and celebrates the Second Empire style reminiscent of the Champs-Á‰lysÁ©es in Paris. The neighboring properties on this sought after corner are some of the area's most important including Widehall and the Custom House which was one of the original British Royal Ports of Entry to the Americas. The current owners include one of Kent County's renowned builders and craftsmen who decided to take on this restoration as a passion project to honor its beauty and significance in the community. The home was completely updated in 2024 with new HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing, roofing, and wood flooring. The floor plan was opened up to accommodate your lifestyle in 2025. New bathrooms and kitchen were custom designed. A grand 3 story staircase greets you at the foyer along with arched entryways to introduce you to the level of detail to be found throughout. The front porch allows you to sit back to watch everything happening in town or simply admire the water. The updated layout is designed for optimal flow and natural light. The primary suite captivates you with a fireplace, spacious walk in closet, and tiled shower room with views of the water from two sides. The Mansard roof allows for the full third floor. In the basement there is a partially finished space perfect for your wine cellar along with extra unfinished tidy space for storage. There is also a fenced in rear yard perfect for intimate gatherings, pets, and gardening. Off street parking is a huge plus as well with a detached garage connecting to the rear yard. Due to this property's grandeur and scope of work, the sellers are going to let you decide on some finishes to make you feel you spend wisely. Allowance lists to be provided to interested parties. Turn this important and updated piece of Chestertown History into your Legacy property.
