Welcome to a stunning, reinvented Colonial in Downtown Bristol! A recent deep dive into the Bristol historical archives revealed that this house thought to have been built in 1770, was built in 1695, making it the second-oldest home in Bristol and one of the oldest in the state. Lovingly and meticulously reimagined, this home features updated finishes and amenities sought by today's buyers while retaining the character, millwork, and architectural elements inherent in a 17th-century build. Enter to find gorgeous wide-plank hardwoods, a cathedral ceiling accented by a custom cupola, an open-concept design fitted with Thermador appliances, white quartz countertops, a shiplap ceiling, crystal doorknobs, and stylish gold hardware. Benefit from a designated mudroom/laundry room, full bath, and two first-floor bedrooms on the main level. Upstairs, find a primary oasis with valued flex space for a home office, striking original beams and flooring, a large full bathroom with a claw-foot soaking tub, custom tiled shower, radiant heat flooring, and a front-facing primary with western exposure. Outside, a uniquely oversized, private backyard awaits with manicured gardens and a spacious patio, perfect for entertaining. Nestled in the heart of downtown Bristol and steps from the water, this historic treasure blends style, character, and coastal charm along with the esteemed features of today's modern builds!
