Newly APPROVED for mixed use! An iconic Essex village property for sale at the head of Main Street! Potential here to create your own custom Essex village pied-a-terre with an income-producing component, or to convert this current office building into your full-time Essex home. Solid and well maintained, the building is currently divided into two condominium units. Unit 'A' consists of 1,200 square feet of first floor space. Unit 'B' comprises 1,977 square feet on the second and third levels. Features include first class mechanical systems, a kitchen, and a spacious second level room overlooking Main and Pratt Street, with views down to the CT river. A gracious terrace and rear yard are accessed from the second level. The location is spectacular.

Adjacent to shops, restaurants, yacht clubs, marinas, galleries, and all of the historic maritime charm Essex is so well known for. There is a private yard accessed directly from the second level or via an exterior staircase from the parking area. You can restore the former residential use of the second and third levels to create a mixed use property combining a residence upstairs and office/retail space on the ground floor. Whatever your desire, this is an opportunity to own a substantial piece of the pie in world renowned Essex waterfront village!
