1435 Main Street

Classic turn-of-the-century character meets a fresh, top-to-bottom refresh at 1435 Main Street in the heart of Northampton. This striking stone-block Foursquare sits behind a wide covered front porch with heavy stone columns, the kind of curb presence you just don't find in newer construction.

Inside, the character shows everywhere: rich hardwood floors, deep original woodwork, a showpiece oak mantel with detailed tilework, and an ornate staircase with turned spindles. Original leaded and diamond-pane windows carry that period charm throughout.

The big-ticket work is already done, with a brand-new heating system and water heater, updated plumbing, fresh paint, and refinished floors. A brand-new full bath anchors the main floor, while the kitchen and second full bath lean into the home's vintage character, complete with a classic farmhouse sink and retro cabinetry, freshened up with new flooring and a stainless range.

Generous living and dining rooms plus a flexible main-floor bonus room give you room to spread out, and a finished walk-up third floor adds even more, ideal as a bonus room, home office, or potential additional bedrooms.

Add a detached garage, off-street parking, and a deep back yard, and you have a rare mix of true original character and real, done-for-you updates. Homes like this in Northampton do not last. Come see it before it is gone.
