Description

Some homes simply have a soul. Lovingly restored from top to bottom, this timeless 3-bedroom, 2-bath 2500+ square foot historic home offers all the character you've dreamed of--without the endless list of projects that usually comes with it. From the moment you step inside, beautifully refinished original wood floors, soaring ceilings, the original hand-crafted bannister and pocket doors remind you that craftsmanship like this simply can't be recreated. Two inviting living areas offer space to gather, celebrate, or simply unwind. At the heart of the home, the magazine-worthy kitchen blends historic charm with modern convenience. Abundant counter space, brand-new appliances, exposed brick accent, and a generous walk-in pantry make this a kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, you'll find 2 bedrooms. The private primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a beautifully renovated bath highlighted by a one-of-a-kind vanity crafted from an antique buffet. Double front porches--one on each level--invite you to slow down, whether you're enjoying the porch swing below or taking in views of downtown Bolivar from above. Thoughtful updates mean you can simply move in and enjoy: updated HVAC and water heater, all-new lighting, sheet-rocked walls and ceilings, buried downspouts, gutters with gutter guards, and so much more. A charming mudroom welcomes you from the driveway, while the basement provides mechanical space along with a traditional cellar perfect for canned goods and root vegetable storage. Situated on a desirable corner lot, the property also includes a large utility building with both overhead and walk-in doors, plus an above-ground pool and swing set that stay with the home. This is the rare historic home that gives you everything you hoped for--the warmth, the craftsmanship, the memories waiting to be made--and none of the restoration headaches. The hard work has already been done. All that's left is to fall in love.
