Built in 1878 and lovingly preserved, this 4 bedroom, 2-bath cottage in New Bedford’s historic West End blends 19th-century character with the updates today’s buyers want. The first floor centers on a living room with a striking stone fireplace that rises all the way to the ceiling, made for cozy New England evenings. A dining room, kitchen, and full bath with a jacuzzi tub complete the main level, along with a dedicated office that’s ideal for working from home or studying. A graceful curved staircase leads upstairs to four bedrooms and a full bath with a brand-new shower. One bedroom features a ladder-accessed loft, a charming hideaway for reading or extra storage. Outside, the large, low-maintenance composite deck is ready for entertaining, and a private putting green lets you sharpen your short game without leaving home. The location is hard to beat: extremely family friendly with the Buttonwood Park and the Buttonwood Park Zoo less than a mile away, and the New Bedford Whaling Museum and the restaurants, galleries, and shops of historic downtown are just minutes from your door.
