For almost 20 years, this beautifully preserved mid-1800s Victorian-style home has been the gathering hub for all the festivities and fun an extended family enjoyed - filled with celebrations and cherished memories. Now, it's ready for a new family to make it their own. 42 Upper Hillsborough is set on a generously-sized lot for its location, surrounded by century-old trees. This home blends timeless charm with everyday comfort in an unbeatable setting. Tucked away on a quiet side street, you're just a five-minute walk from downtown Charlottetown, parks, grocery stores, and schools. This 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers bright, spacious living and dining areas with 10-foot ceilings, large bay windows, and original hardwood floors and trim. A cozy wood stove, propane kitchen range, and elegant Victorian-style radiators connected to an oil furnace provide warmth and peace of mind in case of a power outage. Upstairs, you'll find a spacious primary bedroom and two smaller bedrooms - all with ample closet space - alongside a full 3-piece bathroom. A third-floor loft provides flexible space perfect for a fourth bedroom, office, or creative studio. The upstairs bathroom is fully finished, while the main-floor bathroom and laundry area are unfinished - ready for your personal touch. Outside, enjoy a fenced-in backyard with a large deck, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The yard also features a whimsical tree fort, plenty of space to garden and an old outbuilding that offers a solid footprint for a future workshop, garage, or potential granny suite. The front yard includes a gravel driveway with parking for multiple vehicles. Whether you're looking for a full-time family home or a summer retreat, this rare Victorian gem could be yours!
