Exceptional Properties. Exceptional Clients. Welcome to 55 Pennsylvania Avenue — an exquisite Victorian estate steeped in history and timeless elegance. Originally built in 1880 and once home to Westminster’s esteemed former mayor Joseph D. Brooks, this distinguished residence stands as a testament to refined craftsmanship and architectural grace. Perfectly positioned just steps from Main Street, this grand home offers over 3,000 finished square feet of inspired living space, artfully blending period details with endless potential. From the moment you step through the stained-glass vestibule, you’re greeted by soaring ceilings, intricate millwork, and a series of expansive, light-filled living spaces that evoke warmth and sophistication. Designed for both elegance and versatility, the home features four spacious bedrooms, four full baths, and multiple kitchens and kitchenettes, providing flexible living arrangements for guests, extended family, or creative restoration. A sun-drenched solarium, charming built-ins, and an expansive, fenced rear yard with ample parking (off street spaces & 1 detached garage space) further enhance the property’s appeal. The unfinished attic offers a rare opportunity to expand or reimagine — a blank canvas awaiting your vision.
