At 152 Bonnet Street, history holds the walls and craftsmanship tells a story. Built in 1890 and once home to Brewster Antiques, this stately in-town Victorian has stood as a cornerstone of Manchester’s architectural heritage for over a century. Thoughtfully renovated from top to bottom, the home honors its vintage soul while embracing modern comfort. Graceful period millwork, preserved original wood floors, high ceilings, refined moldings, tall windows and— at the upper landing— a rare curvilinear wall, a hallmark of high-style Queen Anne influence, arc gracefully into view, marrying beauty with structural ingenuity. Over 3,200 square feet of intelligently utilized living space— speaking to the enduring artistry of an era when homes were crafted with intention— unfolds across generously scaled rooms, with a layout that effortlessly accommodates far more than its official bedroom count, offering quiet nooks, guest retreats, or inspiring studios. Set on a level 0.43-acre lot with a classic wrap-around front porch, an enclosed side porch, and a detached garage with an unfinished upper level—all just steps from the center of town. Zoned MU1 for residential or mixed-use flexibility. An unparalleled and iconic piece of Manchester’s living history.
