About this home

A rare opportunity to step into a spacious yellow brick century home in the heart of Chesley.Built in 1910 and set on a mature lot measuring approximately 70 feet by 143 feet, this 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home offers approximately 2,435 square feet above grade, giving buyers the kind of space, character, and flexibility that is increasingly hard to find at this price point.From the classic yellow brick exterior to the covered front entry, generous room sizes, and large newer rear deck, this home offers the chance to create something truly personal over time. The layout provides room for everyday living, hosting, working from home, or simply spreading out in a way that newer, smaller homes often do not allow.The backyard offers a surprising sense of privacy, with mature greenery, room to garden, space to entertain, and a large deck that extends the living area outdoors. The opportunity here is easy to understand. Located on the south end of Chesley's main street, the property is close to the hospital, parks, arena, schools, shops, and downtown conveniences, while still offering the lot size and outdoor space of an established residential property.For buyers looking for space, history, privacy, and long term potential, 279 1st Ave South is worth a closer look.
