The Lady Smith Manor is located in the very heart of the historic village of Dorchester, and is a wonderful example of a Georgian style Manor. The home has undergone some renovation while maintaining its original beauty. The home sits on a beautiful lot with circular driveway, and mature timber (some over 200 years old). Through the front door is the original solid walnut staircase that leads to the upper floor. Pocket doors on either side lead to the family room and dining rooms. Also on the main floor is a large entertaining room (which has been used for events and conferences). Formal living and dining rooms are flooded with light and feature ornamental egg and dart mouldings. Kitchen is large and has lots of solid wood cabinetry and large island. There is a double stainless steel sinks, a dishwasher, a two door refrigerators and a electric range which could be upgraded. The rooms at the rear of the house, house the a large office space, coat closet and privacy entrance. A half bath is off the dining area and at the rear of the house are two additional rest rooms which could be furbished, located downstairs. Access to the full basement is from three directions. Hook ups are available for a washer and dryer and the rear entry has hooks for outdoor clothing. The basement, with its thick stone granite wall could be insulated with spray foam to be more energy efficient. The second floor has seven guest bedrooms, closets and a full Victorian bath, a laundry room and shower. (id:2493)
