About this home

In the heart of Northampton’s historic district, this Queen Anne Victorian offers a rare opportunity to owner-occupants and savvy investors alike. Constructed with historic craftsmanship, and lovingly maintained by current owners for 20 years, it is walkable to Smith College, downtown, Childs Park and many amenities. A welcoming mahogany-floored wraparound porch leads to three well-maintained two-bedroom/one-full bath apartments with a history of 100% occupancy. Spacious and sunny interiors include eat-in kitchens, bay windows, wood floors, tin ceilings, and a private terrace. Recent upgrades – a freshly painted exterior, weatherization, mini-split installation – improve comfort and beauty. The home’s striking turret and exceptional slate roof crown a landscape of pollinator gardens and stonework.  With a two-car brick garage, generous off-street parking, and basement storage & laundry facility, 296 Elm St is a perfect blend of historic soul, prime location, and turnkey convenience.
