REAL ESTATE:
This is your chance to own a historic, two owner home with tremendous potential! Built in 1861, this 3,886 sf, two story brick home retains all the original charm and character of a Civil War era property. The real estate consists of a lovely 1.4 +/- acre lot improved with a 4 bedroom, 2 bath home with high ceilings, large windows, handsome, inlaid original oak hardwood floors and beautiful woodwork. The large, eat in kitchen, which connects to the spacious laundry room, is equipped with some updated appliances including a 2 year old Samsung flat top range and Frigidaire dishwasher and 10 year old refrigerator. The kitchen contains a pass-through to the formal dining room with 10’ ceilings, crown molding and built-in china cabinet. The main floor also consists of a full bath with shower, parlor and family room, both with bump-outs and fireplaces, a living room featuring a built-in bookcase and carved wood detail highlighting the arched entry to an alcove that leads to the family room. The second floor contains 4 bedrooms, a full bath with original clawfoot bathtub and access to the walk-up, floored attic and the sleeping porch. The real estate is further improved with a two car, wood sided detached garage with loft. Although the home has considerable deferred maintenance and will need a fair amount of repair, the end result of owning a restored, historic home or possibly even a Bed and Breakfast will be well worth the effort!
