Property Description

Move right into this well maintained 1880 two-story farmhouse, ideally situated on an almost half-acre lot in the highly sought-after Wilson School District. The welcoming main level features durable Pergo flooring, a spacious living room accented with wainscoting and a beadboard ceiling with faux beams, a formal dining room highlighted by a charming antique hobnail light fixture, and a cozy kitchen complete with a breakfast counter, seating, and all appliances included. Just off the kitchen, step onto the covered porch and deck with a retractable sunshade—an ideal space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing. The impressive family room boasts a vaulted tongue-and-groove wood ceiling with two skylights, abundant natural light, built-in bookshelves, a ceiling fan, a large walk-in closet, and an adjacent full bath with a shower and updated barn door. The enclosed front porch serves as a comfortable four-season sunroom with heat and a ceiling fan, providing additional year-round living space. Upstairs, you'll find three private bedrooms plus a walk-through fourth bedroom that was previously used as a dressing room. This versatile space offers two walk-in closets and direct access to the full bath featuring a classic clawfoot tub. Additional features include replacement tilt-in windows throughout, oil forced-air heat supplemented by two propane heaters, split-system air conditioning, a full walk-up attic with exceptional storage, and a full basement with outside access through a Bilco door. The washer, dryer, and all kitchen appliances remain. Recent updates include a hot water heater (2021), a newer chimney liner, and a regularly serviced heating system with a transferable parts and labor warranty through February 2027. Outside, you'll appreciate the barn-style storage shed with electricity, a two-car carport with a concrete floor that also doubles as a fantastic covered entertaining area, and driveway parking for four additional vehicles. If you've been searching for a home that combines historic character, modern conveniences, and a desirable location, this charming farmhouse is ready to welcome you home.
