About This Home

As of February 2026

The opportunity to make your home in the heart of Montrose is here. The southern cottage style home is on the National Registry of Historic Places, built circa 1850, and has been lovingly and carefully maintained and updated to afford the owner modern day conveniences. Both warmth and charm are seen at every turn.... heart pine hardwood floors, built-in window seat (with storage) in the separate dining room, eat-in kitchen bathed in natural light with a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams, ensuite primary bedroom with 2 walk-in cedar closets. The study walls are made of stunning wood paneling and the study includes a wet bar. The kitchen includes an O'Keefe and Merritt gas range. Outside, the home boasts a deep wrap around open porch. The yard includes an in-ground pool, completely fenced in yard, and numerous plants and trees (satsuma, orange, grapefruit, camellia), scuppernong arbor, and of course--- the not to be missed live oaks. A detached structure has been completely renovated and updated. It can be defined as a garage and/or workshop with plenty of extra room for storage. The 3 HVAC’s were replaced in 2021, a 26KW Kohler generator was added in 2024 and new roof in 2024. Own a piece of history.....Legend has it that a cannon ball landed in the dining room floor and that General Canby held a meeting in the home. Supreme location close to the 4 lane, schools, churches, shopping, and healthcare. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
