$674,900
Set on 7.66 unrestricted acres, this 1-of-a-kind property combines privacy, character & remarkable versatility w/ hundreds of thousands of dollars invested in improvements during the current ownership. Warm & welcoming with just a touch of Southern-belle charm, the home blends timeless, vintage-inspired character w/ modern updates. Antiqued gold & polished silver-toned finishes, crystal-look knobs, decorative lighting, crown molding & ornate ceiling treatments create beautiful details throughout, while newer wood floors intentionally placed to lend the occasional old-house creak add another subtle touch of personality. The property marries charm w/ functional living.
At the heart of the home, the kitchen remodel completed within the past year now features new butcher-block c'tops, appliances, hardware & lighting alongside timeless real solid-wood cabinetry w/ glass china-display inlays, & a gardener / canner's dream sink. Storage extends well beyond the kitchen's main pantry to an exceptional approx. 10'×10' second pantry with room for canning / preserving, bulk groceries, hosting & serving supplies, an additional refrigerator & freezer, garden harvests & emergency-preparedness storage; a particularly useful complement to life on acreage.
All 3 bathrooms have also received extensive high-end renovations, with beautiful cabinetry, marble & granite surfaces, designer tile & new flooring, upgraded fixtures & carefully selected details. The primary bath includes dedicated linen cabinetry, Bluetooth audio & soft LED night lighting, while the secondary bath adds a multi-function spa shower with temperature & water-pressure options, Bluetooth audio & LED night lighting. Even the half bath carries the home's character through with classic marble, high-end cabinetry and vintage-inspired glass lighting, & ornate ceilings and molding.
The home's existing interior offers even more flexibility with an oversized bonus room that could serve beautifully as a substantial home office, craft / sewing rm, guest rm or potential 4th bedroom, subject to applicable requirements. Above it all is an extraordinary approx. 1,600 sq. ft. of additional space w/ plumbing and electricity available, creating significant potential for future finished living space, guest or multigenerational accommodations, attic, or other possibilities subject to applicable approvals. Importantly, the home is complete and move-in ready as it stands today, while the space above is an opportunity if needed.
Thoughtful investment extends behind the walls as well. The crawlspace has been fully encapsulated and equipped with a dehumidifier, with convenient access to plumbing for future maintenance & service.
Step outside and the acreage begins to tell its own story. A brand-new, approx. 1,000-sq.-ft. deck creates an expansive outdoor living area adjoining an approx. 2,000-sq.-ft. deer-fenced raised-bed garden. A charming flagstone path connects the spaces, while 50+ planted trees, including a pear, peach, apple, plum, fig orchard, blueberry plantings, & more, tie the orchard, garden, & landscape, and future front yard privacy together against a backdrop of private woods, spring blossoms, and beautiful fall leaves.
Beyond the home & gardens, the property offers exceptional utility: an approx. 1,000-sq.-ft. powered workshop w/ 2 roll-up garage doors, a covered 2-car carport, an additional storage shed and an oversized attached 2-car garage. Inside the garage is a professionally installed 9-person storm shelter representing an investment of more than $20,000, including installation; an uncommon addition offering meaningful protection and peace of mind.
This is far more than a house placed on acreage. It is a thoughtfully developed property where the home, gardens, storage, workshop space and unrestricted 7.66 acs work together. It offers extensive improvements already completed, room to live comfortably today and remarkable possibilities for whatever comes next.
