About This Home
Walk across the 136 year old hard pine floors, they resonate subtle sounds. Unlike the concrete and chemically made components of modern homes, this home is organic. Built in 1889 with dense old southern pine. The original floors are in every room with the exception of kitchen and baths. Framing the floors is 9 inch hand milled baseboards and 5 inch hand milled casing, all solid wood. The dining room has six foot tall wainscoting panels detailed in trim. The dense old southern pine was disappearing by the early 1900's and rare by the 1920's. The woodworking is one of the many treasures of this home. Look at the 28 panels of glass in the main area, you'll see that the majority of the panels still have the original handmade glass. In the 1800's glass was hand made and had slight waves, thereby referred to as wavy glass. Take a moment to find the wavy glass panels, thy where made at the time Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota all became states. Very few people have the chance to live in a historical home that retains it's original essence. Sadly trendy remodeling has forever destroyed the integrity of many historic homes. Not here, this home has been preserved. Hopefully the new family see's themselves as stewards, helping to preserve this home for the next 136 years. The home has been modernized with care... central HVAC, plumbing, electrical, etc. There are window units in the bedrooms for added comfort. Originally it was part of a much larger estate. It still retains 2.7 acres, with the home sitting on a hill overlooking Mirror Lake. The property runs into lake, you own lake frontage. There's a big wrap around porch with a view of the water. Add a big vegetable garden, a few chickens and azaleas for historic flavor. There is a 4 stall carport that was probably for carriages and maybe horse stalls at one time. It's attached to what was used as tack room with hayloft above. For fun checkout the post supporting the carport roof, I hope you enjoy. The barn needs some work, it has potential. I despise the word potential. Two dollars will buy you a lottery ticket with lots of potential. When I say the barn has potential, it will take time and money to convert it to a guest apartment, office or whatever you choose. It would be a shame to loose this bit of history. Look to the east of the barn and you will see an old metal structure that was a water tower. I'm thinking awesome tree house for the kids. We can take you below the house to see the strength of the structure and the old heating stove, the hard rough cut dimensional lumber, the piers and the craftsmanship of the construction. The home is solid. There's so much going on here, be prepared to spend some time and absorb the history, uniqueness and beauty of this property.
