Thoughtfully updated for modern comfort, the home is now equipped with central HVAC while preserving its rich architectural character. A spacious two-story northwest wing extends the living space. At the rear of the house, the brick patio has been enclosed to create a beautiful sunroom—offering peaceful garden views and a quiet place to unwind. A quaint summer kitchen affectionately called “the pink house” adds historic charm and possible rental income.Outdoors, you'll find lush landscaped gardens filled with a vibrant variety of plants and flowers, an old iron quarry that has naturally turned into a tranquil pond, and even a charming meandering creek. It’s truly magical. The grounds also feature a barn with 2 garage bays, a pool, a poolhouse with a gazebo, an original smokehouse, and a charming summer kitchen complete with 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom—ideal for guests, extended family, or rental opportunities. You’ll also find chicken coops, a peacock pen, and a pig pen because sometimes our best friends have four legs or wings. Having previously operated as a Bed and Breakfast and wedding venue, the estate offers a stunning backdrop for gatherings and celebrations. Whether hosting unforgettable events or simply enjoying the tranquility of the land, Avondale is the perfect place to create beautiful, lasting memories.
