Description
Calling all Older Home enthusiasts, large families, even multi-families, this property may fill your needs. Everything needs a bit of work, but there is a lot to work with. Built in 1881, the architectural style of this 4BR, 2 BA home is known as "Pyramidal Cottage". It is an ideal design for the old south who had no central ac. The double front doors and wide hallway allowed air to pass through the house easily. The high ceilings allowed the heat to rise so that its occupants might not suffer so much. The interior features are many. I am told that the living room paneling was the same as was used for the Bowman Depot that was built in the late 1870's. Another oddity that appears nowhere else in the house is the wide board walls in the dining room. There are 3 fireplaces in unknown condition. One is located in the master bedroom, the other two in the living room & dining room. The house was added onto over the years with the development of new conveniences. The 2nd residence (1BR, 1BA) was built in the 60's and according to public records has 1218 sqft. This property also needs work. The building on the front left of the property was used as a painting studio. It has electric and water (condition unknown). This building would make for a great workshop (1128 sqft). There are also two additional storage buildings. Have a horse....bring it. The rear of the property is fenced and the barn is just screaming for someone to restore it. There is so much....make an appointment to see it!
