Imagine opening the front door of a Victorian home and finding that the details everyone loves about old houses are still waiting for you: carved wood panels, stained-glass windows, original hardware, and a staircase that commands the foyer.
Built in 1900, this Queen Anne residence announces its personality from the outside, where a spectacular three-story tower rises above clapboard siding embellished with scalloped accents and carved trim.
213 E East Main St, Hancock, NY 13783 | $379,000
7 Bedrooms | 2 Full Bathrooms + 1 Half Bath | 3,025 Sq Ft | Built in 1900 | 0.39 Acres
Inside, four fireplaces feature carved mantels, beveled mirrors, and vintage tilework—each one a small record of the craftsmanship that once made ordinary rooms feel extraordinary.
The sitting room flows into a parlor divided by decorative wood panels, while the formal dining room retains an ornate fireplace and a built-in china cabinet with a pass-through to the kitchen.
Upstairs, four bedrooms and a balcony offer space for family or guests, and the third floor reveals additional rooms and a private suite tucked beneath the roofline. Modern kitchen appliances and practical conveniences bring the house into the present without erasing the period details that give it identity.
Outside, locally harvested stone steps lead to the inviting front porch, while a stone patio creates another place to enjoy the seasons. Offered at $379,000, this is a home for someone who sees more than bedrooms and square footage—a rare chance to make everyday life part of a Victorian story, surrounded by craftsmanship that deserves to be preserved for another generation.
