389 Main St

Don't miss your opportunity to own a piece of Wilbraham history! The Chauncey Peck House was built in the late 1800s. Though its namesake, Wilbraham historian Chauncey Edwin Peck, never resided here, he created a home whose character and craftsmanship have stood the test of time. Distinguished by its slate roof, decorative fish-scale shingles, and porch with gingerbread trim, this Victorian residence remains a recognizable part of the community more than a century after its construction. A welcoming wraparound porch provides access to both the front entry, complete with its built-in door ringer, and the kitchen. A separate side entrance leads into the former back parlor, now a comfortable family room featuring knotty wood paneling and custom built-ins. The spacious kitchen offers wood floors, warm wood cabinetry--some with decorative panel accents--and a built-in buffet. Formal living room and dining room with the dining room enhanced by wainscoting, a ceiling medallion, and a striking bay of windows. A versatile room between the dining room and family room, currently staged as a home office, awaits your vision, while a half bath completes the first floor. The staircase showcases turned balusters, a substantial newel post, and a handrail that reflect the home's period character and lead to the three bedrooms with wood floors, a distinctive turret bath with a skylight and walk-in shower, plus convenient attic access with wood floors. Numerous updated windows complement the home's historic character while contributing to everyday comfort. Set on a corner lot, the property includes outdoor space with a stream of the Mill River at the back to enjoy and a detached garage. With a sidewalk leading toward the center of town and all its amenities and services, the home remains closely connected to the community it has been part of for generations.
