About This Home
As of December 2021Be prepared for love at first site! This breathtaking historical home aesthetically embodies a sweet southern charm that's absolutely picturesque and refreshing! Unwind with a warm cup of coffee on the front porch after a long days work. The tasteful chromaticity of the front entry beckons a grand 'WELCOME!'' to all those who approach. Upon entering you will be greeted by a delightful and cozy family room that's cheerfully beaming with oodles of natural light. Note the elegant, double sided natural gas fireplace nestled perfectly in the center of the room offering an exquisite focal point. As you transfer into the dinning area, note the cozy sitting room perfect for entertaining or relaxing with your favorite book. Family and guests will appreciate the split floor plan hosting two graciously sized guest bedrooms and equipped with a newly remodeled and distinguished hallway bath. Arriving into the heart of the home imagine hosting the most exquisite dinner parties in a kitchen that would inspire any chef with a late 40's Chambers Model C natural gas stove! The sleek and modern granite offer a delicious contrast to the well appointed cabinetry and flooring. Quietly slip away into your own private space where you will find the generously sized main bedroom and equally satisfying en suit bath. Take in the tranquil and serene views of your lawn and garden from the screened in back porch. Discover an additional storage space and potential bonus room at the top of a stunning wood staircase. No detail has been left undone to include updated LPV flooring throughout, an incapsulated crawlspace, new duct work. This property is not in flood zone. Truly, all that's left for you to do here is love this home! Don't let this one slip away!
