Property Description

Welcome to a rare gem as you step into history where 19th-century craftsmanship meets your creative style and design which could make this diamond in the rough spark with its original luster.  Built in 1885 and reasonably preserved, this distressed 2,504 square-foot residence is more than a home - it’s a story waiting to be told.  Located in the Wright Dunbar Historic District, upon application the age of the home may qualify for a historic designation and investigative research may reveal that the property is located is a Qualified Opportunity/Economic Zone which could provide the statutory benefits associated with the designation. Boasting four spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, this stately home invites you in with soaring ceilings, rich hardwood floors and several original fireplaces that serve as both architectural focal points and cozy gathering places.  From the moment you step through the front entry, you're greeted with period details that whisper of the home's storied past - some ornate woodwork, tall windows that bathe the rooms in natural light and elegant, vintage-inspired touches throughout.  The kitchen is ready for both casual family breakfasts and elegant entertaining, while the formal dining and living rooms offer warmth and character rarely found in newer homes.  Upstairs, the bedrooms offer ample space and light, blending charm with function.  Each bathroom has been updated to balance antique appeal with some modern convenience. Outside, a spacious yard offers room to garden, relax or entertain, all framed by the stately silhouette of this historic beauty.  There are two open framed porch areas (front - 84 square feet/side - 128 square feet) which adds to overall living space.  Whether you're a lover of vintage homes, an architectural enthusiast, or simply someone in search of a home with soul - this property is ready to welcome its next chapter.  Come experience the magic of 1885, reimagined for today.
