Description

Fully Updated Historic Property | 2 Bed / 2 Bath Main House + 1 Bed / 1 Bath Guest Cottage | 2.75 Acres This isn't your average historic home. Set on 2.75 acres, this turn-of-the-century property features an historic 2-bedroom, 2-bath main house along with a guest house that provides a 3rd bedroom, a 3rd full bathroom, an additional full kitchen and living room. Built circa 1900 and brought back to life from the studs up, the main house has been painstakingly restored with a reverence for craftsmanship and a commitment to modern function. Inside, you'll find longleaf pine walls, custom cabinetry, restored hardwood floors, decorative tin ceiling, and African mahogany countertops—a natural harmony between old and new. Even the windows, trim, and hardware were lovingly restored or custom-matched. The primary suite offers a peaceful escape with a custom soaking tub built specifically for the space. Every major system has been updated: PEX plumbing, electrical, HVAC, gutters, roof, septic, whole-house generator, water softener, and reverse osmosis system. Out back, the cottage offers the flexibility of additional private living space ideal for multi-generational living, an office or studio, a guest house, or rental income potential. Manicured and landscaped grounds include a canopy of oaks, salvaged historic brick walkways, and an apothecary garden. There's no HOA, no cookie-cutter design—just a legacy home with soul and substance, ready for its next steward.
