The Key to Buying or Selling
Step inside one of Bradford’s hometown treasures–a storied two-family residence that has stood at the heart of the community for generations. Owned by the same family since 1962, this stately brick home has lived many lives: once a boarding house for railroad workers, later a doctor’s office, & even a restaurant. The broad covered porch feels like a front-row seat to traditions–especially during the beloved Pumpkin Show parades. Longtime neighbors may remember generations of children stopping here for homemade popcorn balls on Halloween. From the turquoise front door to the park views across the street, the home still carries the unmistakable spirit of a place that has always welcomed its community. Inside, original woodwork takes center stage. Rich trim, substantial pocket doors, vintage radiators, period light fixtures, decorative fireplaces, & a remarkable staircase create character that cannot be reproduced. The spacious parlor offers room for both living & dining, while the large kitchen provides abundant cabinetry & space for a future vision. A full bath & dedicated laundry room complete the main level. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, a full bath, & a sunroom overlooking the neighborhood–an inviting spot for morning coffee, a reading nook, or a quiet studio. Beyond, the generous attic & unfinished basement provide considerable storage. The second dwelling brings a distinctly modern advantage. Remodeled in 2024-2025, the one-bedroom apartment features a refreshed kitchen, updated bath, durable flooring, & private living space–ideal as an in-law suite, home office, or an income-producing rental. Outside, the fenced yard offers room for pets & gardens. Improvements include: furnace 2019, metal roof, gutters, & gutter guards 2023. This is more than a two-family home. It is a piece of local history–rich in craftsmanship, layered w/ stories, & ready for a buyer who sees the beauty in preserving the past while thoughtfully shaping what comes next!
