Property Description

Nicely set back from the street and constructed in the Greek Revival style, the very handsome Nathaniel Beal house circa 1850 is a wonderful piece of Rockland's shoe-making history. The property is now suffering from benign neglect and deferred maintenance. Best to consider this a GUT RENOVATION. The covered side porch is enchanting. Some original elaborate moldings remain intact, others need attention. First floor rooms are large and STATELY with 8'9" ceilings! Easy to imagine this was a vibrant house. Now however, lots of failing plaster. Living room, study and primary bedroom all have wood burning fireplaces (condition unknown). Functionally obsolescent bathroom and kitchen. Walk-in attic (through 3rd bedroom) has potential for additional living area. The garage (likely the original "shoe-factory") has been joined to the house creating a very long structure. The backyard is lush and exceptionally level. Per seller: offers to be reviewed 3pm Monday 9/29, pls allow 24hrs for response.
