A Rare Cumberland Gem – Timeless Charm Meets Future Potential
This is a truly exceptional opportunity in the heart of the beloved Village of Cumberland—just three blocks from downtown, nestled on a prominent corner lot with coveted R1-A zoning. Built in 1936, this beautifully preserved Craftsman home is brimming with character and untapped potential. Lovingly maintained by the same owners for over 30 years, it showcases thoughtful upgrades alongside its original charm.
The main residence welcomes you with rich fir woodwork, an abundance of natural light, and spacious living areas. The newly updated kitchen features quartz countertops, a bonus kitchenette, and flows seamlessly into an inviting sunporch—perfect for morning coffee or quiet reading. The main floor offers two comfortable bedrooms and a freshly renovated bathroom, while the upper loft and den provide two additional bedrooms and a rough-in for a second bath.
Outdoors, the magic continues. The private, sun-drenched backyard boasts mature pear trees, a Bing cherry, a cozy fire pit. Out front is a covered verandas that exude classic charm. A standout feature is the “Bridal Cabin” at the rear of the lot—dating back to the 1890s—now set on a new foundation with septic tied in and drainage in place, ready to be transformed into a studio, guest suite, or income-generating space.
The dry, unfinished basement adds even more utility, ideal for laundry, storage, or a workshop.
This one-of-a-kind property blends heritage beauty with zoning flexibility, offering endless lifestyle and investment possibilities—all within a short stroll to the vibrant heart of Cumberland.
