For Sale $850,000
Steeped in history yet beautifully reimagined for today's lifestyle, this iconic homestead is a truly rare offering. Lovingly restored from top to bottom in 2020, every detail has been thoughtfully updated while preserving the timeless character and charm that make this home so special. If walls could talk, they would tell generations of stories filled with love, laughter, and exceptional care. Nestled on an impressive 4.47 acres of gorgeous, level, usable land, the property enjoys the extraordinary privilege of Buck Creek meandering along the back property line—offering incredibly easy access to the water and creating a peaceful setting that few properties can claim. It's a one-of-a-kind retreat where history, nature, and modern comfort come together. Inside, you'll find spacious, beautifully appointed living areas including a generous living room, elegant formal dining room, an incredible kitchen designed for gathering, and a relaxing owner's suite. Three additional bedrooms, a full bath, and additional kitchen and dining space provide exceptional flexibility for family or guests. Beautiful craftsmanship continues with the stunning staircase leading to the attic, adding yet another touch of the home's timeless character. The fully renovated basement expands the home's possibilities even further, featuring its own kitchenette, living area, dining space, two bedrooms, and a full bath—ideal for multigenerational living, extended guests, private accommodations, or even potential income opportunities. Outdoor living is just as impressive. Both the upper and lower rear decks are plumbed for gas grills, making entertaining effortless, while the automatic Sunsetter awning provides welcome shade for relaxing afternoons overlooking the peaceful creek. Whether enjoying morning coffee or hosting family and friends, this outdoor space is designed to be enjoyed year-round. Modern conveniences have been thoughtfully incorporated throughout, including a hardwired 24KW Generac whole-house generator for peace of mind, Starlink high-speed internet, and premium window treatments backed by a lifetime warranty. Properties like this rarely become available. Rich in history, completely updated, surrounded by breathtaking acreage, and graced by the beauty of Buck Creek, this is far more than a home—it's a legacy waiting for its next chapter.
