Step back in time into this one-of-a-kind historic home, originally built in 1895 as a general store and post office. Brimming with character, this charming property retains many of its original features: the store shelves now feature library ladders to access books and decor, the tin ceiling tiles are still in place as well as the narrow strip wood floors. Thoughtfully updated over the years, the home offers modern conveniences like an updated kitchen with custom made farmhouse island, plus a huge pantry for small appliances and bulk food. The primary bedroom is on the wing of the main level and offers a sitting room/office, access to the large covered porch, and the coziest reading nook located in the light filled turret overlooking the rolling hills outside. This turret is mimicked upstairs in another bedroom, and is an ideal spot for daydreaming. A total of 3 bedrooms and a den are on the second floor, including 1 with access to a balcony. Outside, you will adore the extensive landscaping, beautiful black board fencing, and multiple covered porches as well as a brick patio from which to take in the breathtaking scenery. Mutiple upgrades include hardiplank siding, metal roof, vinyl windows, added insulation, and so much more.
