Description

Move-in ready, chock-full of historic charm and set up for the way we live today. This 1872 beauty sits right in the heart of Washington, NC's Downtown Historic District. And this is one you can move right into and enjoy. The details we love in an old house are everywhere. Gleaming hardwood floors, tall ceilings, stained glass, transom windows, beautiful mouldings, a claw foot tub. But the big things have been taken care of, too. The sellers completed a pre-listing inspection and addressed the identified repairs. There's a newly Gaco Coated metal roof and new HVAC system installed in 2025, plus another HVAC replaced in 2019. And the floor plan really works. There are two first-floor bedroom suites. The primary has a walk-in closet, adjoining bath and connects to a beautiful front room that would make the sweetest sitting room or home office. The second suite also has a walk-in closet and adjoining bath, then flows into a large mudroom/storage room with its own outside entrance. The laundry room is big, too--with plenty of room for real life. Upstairs you'll find four additional bedrooms, a full bath and a flexible art room/workshop space. Out back, there's a large deck with plenty of room for entertaining and a fenced backyard. And then there's that front porch. It's the kind of porch made for rocking chairs, visiting with friends and neighbors, or reading a book on a rainy afternoon. But living here is about more than the house. Walk to dinner. Walk to coffee. Walk to church or the farmers and artisans market. Walk along the Pamlico River on Stewart Parkway. There are local shops, galleries, the Turnage Theatre, outdoor concerts and festivals, boating, kayaking and some of the prettiest sunsets around. And people are friendly here. They wave. Before long, you'll know their names and they'll know yours. That's downtown Washington, NC living--and it's a pretty special way to live.
