For Sale $270,000
One of America's favorites, with a twist! The Airplane Bungalow is a subset of the popular Prairie-style Arts & Crafts homes of the early 1900s, identified by unique low-pitched hipped-roof forms and multiple projecting gables. Thought to be one of only three of this style architecture in Salisbury, listed as the J.C. Ketchie House in the National Register of Historic Places. This unique home is set on an oversized corner lot in the desirable Fulton Heights neighborhood. A prominent chimney features ornately decorated brickwork, a design repeated in the veranda's balustrade. A large portico with vaulted beadboard ceiling leads to the statement, wrap-around veranda with its giant brick and granite balustrade. (The granite balustrade caps are 3.5' square!) Massive pyramidal columns frame the oversized front door and twin front picture windows. The veranda is easily the most notable feature of the house, with exposed rafters and brackets, providing extended outdoor living and entertaining space. An open and airy formal living room features French doors and built-in glass-front bookcases flanking the original brick fireplace. Two front rooms feature chair rail and paneled wainscoting. The dining room features the home's original bracketed plate rail. Spacious eat-in kitchen has been recently remodeled. Gorgeous refinished hardwood floors throughout the living room, front den, dining room, hall, and sought-after first-floor owners' suite with walk-in shower. Handsome staircase with original box newel post and ornate wood balusters leads to 2nd story small center hall, two bedrooms, and half bath. The partially finished basement offers 4-5 separate rooms, including laundry, a half-bath, and a sprawling carpeted entertainment area. Beyond, a 240-square-foot sunroom with vaulted ceiling overlooks the backyard. The generous yard, with an attractive gazebo, is enclosed with chain-link and picket-style fencing. A long driveway passes through the portico, wraps around to the oversized detached 2-car garage, and exits at the side street. A common alley runs parallel to Wiley Avenue across the rear of the property. Gas water heater (approx. 2009), gas package unit (approx. 2006). Baseboard boiler (unknown age) functions nicely. The electrical system is likely updated as the original knob and tube system has been removed in the basement. Exterior repainted in recent years (date unknown). There are some water stains from possible roof leaks; unknown if active. Other than this, this is a well-cared-for home with no known issues. This property will be sold AS-IS / estate sale. Closing will be after 2/1/2026.
