557 Main Street, A Truly Unique Claremont Property: An Entire City Block! Opportunity meets character at 557 Main Street, where approximately 1.2 acres span an entire city block bordered by Jackson Street to the west, Roosevelt Street to the east, and McKinley Street to the north, a decidedly presidential setting! With paved access from both Main Street and Roosevelt Street, this exceptional property offers an unusual combination of space, accessibility, and versatility right in town. Lovingly cared for by the same family since 2002, the 1,872-square-foot, three-bedroom home blends classic character with thoughtful updates. Built in 1922, the home has an assessor's effective age of just 29 years, reflecting the care invested over the years. Hardwood floors, natural woodwork, new windows, vinyl siding, and a standing-seam metal roof provide lasting appeal. The beautifully renovated kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with quartz countertops, farmhouse sink, smart cabinetry, soft-close drawers, pull-out pantry storage, new KitchenAid appliances, gas range, and Bosch dishwasher. The main level also features a spacious living room, dining area, dedicated office, heated mudroom, convenient laundry with stackable Electrolux HE washer and dryer, and a three-quarter bath. A bright four-season porch with propane heat extends the living space. Upstairs are three bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with walk-in closet, plus a full bath with accessible tub and shower. The full basement offers storage and workshop space, while the enormous garage provides exceptional room for vehicles, equipment, hobbies, projects, or storage, with potential for up to four cars. Outside, enjoy the large Trex deck with a fenced area for the pup, garden spaces, mature birch, maple, and apple trees, trellis details, a covered walkway, circular driveway, and multiple access points. A Buderus boiler provides baseboard heat, with electric toe warmers in the kitchen!
