58 Front St, Gagetown

Home on the River, home in the Village! Built on the Gagetown wharf by a riverboat captain, this structure has been a midwifery and surgery as well as a bed & breakfast for two operators. The original home built in 1880 was expanded in 2006 and rebuilt inside after the historic flood of 2018. Every step of the rebuild as well as news interviews can be found in the blog of the website http://www.langhousebandb.com. The view of the Gagetown Creek, a branch of The Wolastoq - St. John River, is a constant source of awe w/bald eagles, osprey, ducks as well as river edge mammals and other wildlife. The Gagetown Marina is in front of the property. This six bedroom/six bathroom house is well designed for a large or even extended family w/two bedrooms on the riverside & four bedrooms in the original part of the house and ensuites galore. Presently used as an artist’s studio, the large room on the main floor was the birthing room in the 1950s and early 1960s. It has potential to be a luxurious bedroom. Renovations in 2018 and 2019 included upgrades to plumbing & electrical features + three mini-split heat pumps. The walls of the basement are insulated with spray foam. The older portion of the ground floor of the house has the original flooring painted a pale yellow. The formal dining room has its original hardwood floors. Stained and finished cedar decking gives the new part of the house a strong, warm feeling and accentuates the rock wall behind the propane stove in the living room.
