Standing proudly since the late 1800s, this remarkable Victorian-era home has been a part of Adair’s history for generations. Rich in character & local heritage, the property has remained a recognizable landmark while being thoughtfully updated over the years to preserve its charm & functionality. Situated on approximately 1.16 street-to-street acres along Main Street/Highway 28, this impressive residence offers 3,671 square feet (per tax records), 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 private offices, multiple living areas, and three fireplaces, all centered around a stunning grand staircase & timeless architectural details that are difficult to recreate today. The spacious kitchen was designed for gathering, featuring abundant cabinetry, generous countertop space, double ovens, a gas cooktop, breakfast area & multiple pantry spaces. Throughout the home you’ll find hardwood flooring, beautiful woodwork, oversized rooms, natural light & the kind of craftsmanship that has become increasingly rare. Over the years, much of the home has been extensively renovated, including significant updates to the kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, electrical, plumbing & interior finishes, allowing the next owner to enjoy historic character with many modern improvements already in place. Step outside to discover mature trees, a fenced backyard, expansive patio areas, a detached 24’ x 36’ shop with electricity, plumbed & concrete flooring, additional storage & an in-ground pool being sold as-is.

The property’s prominent Main Street location and generous street-to-street acreage also present exciting opportunities for future residential, professional office, boutique business, or mixed-use possibilities, subject to verification with the Town of Adair. Historic homes of this caliber rarely become available.
