317 South Queen Street

Historic Chestertown • Kent County • Maryland

What a find! This fine example of vernacular architecture was originally located "around the corner" at the rear of Worrell Tavern. Some years ago it was moved to this location and placed on a new foundation with full basement - and so began its new life. In 1998, the present owners started a three-year renovation to bring this comfortable old building alive to today's standards and contemporary needs.

As a reminder of the building's "roots", the original stairs, pine floors and claw foot tub were saved. 317 South Queen Street is now a "modern lady" with all the amenities expected.

"A Seller Meeting the Market".

Offered now at $589,000 FROM $669,000
