This charming 1½ story Folk Victorian is truly a must-see for a buyer that appreciates historic features found in homes built in the early 20th century. It is located on a large .7 acre corner lot in a small Southern town. One historical survey denotes construction in the 1920s. The frame house was one of twelve contributing properties in the East Tatum Avenue Historic District. It has a hip roof, 2 interior chimneys, a façade door with transom, 4 gable bays on the second level, and a wide wraparound porch. The interior of the home maintains original features including: French doors, beadboard ceilings, wainscoting, mantels with ornate scrolls and spindles, plaster walls, large paneled pine doors, decorative woodwork, high ceilings, wide baseboards, transoms with window operators, and an antique staircase with newel posts, balusters, handrails and the skirt/apron with decorative millwork in place. Many of the windows in the home have fluted window trim casings with corner blocks. Most of the door frames also have the fluted casings and base blocks, which adjoin wide baseboards. On the main level, the home boasts an impressive entrance hall with arched entry way, the open staircase, living room, dining room, bedroom with its own side entrance, a large sunroom that could be used as a family room, one full bath, a half bath, a laundry room/pantry, and a spacious country kitchen. Upstairs there is a wide hall, three bedrooms with ceiling fans, and a full bath. The current owners have just recently had the exterior of the home painted, as well as, several interior rooms and the woodwork on the staircase. The floors in the entrance hall, living room, upstairs hall, large upstairs bedroom, and the treads on the staircase were just refinished in preparation for the sale of the home. The large lot has established trees that provide shade and ambiance. A portion of the backyard has a chain link fence, which provides privacy and security for an above ground pool and rustic outbuilding. If you have been looking for an affordable house with character, look no further. This Folk Victorian is priced to allow the new owners to make custom improvements to fit their needs and to make it their own “Home Sweet Home!” Call to schedule an appointment today.
