Property Description
Step back in time and into the large hallway with double doors from front porch. Hallway features original wood walls and ceiling. At rear of hallway are double doors that accesses the wide welcoming back porch. Both porches run the width of the home. Front Porch faces East and captures the morning sun and back porch watches the sun go down in the evening.
Formal Living room with fireplace and mantel and Dining room on left. Parlor to right has fireplace. Country Kitchen has solid wood cabinets and lots of storage. Additional chimney is attached to kitchen (but not open at this time)
Original home is attached and has been used as downstairs bedroom. Fireplace with lovely mantel would make for cozy winter evenings in this bedroom. Large Laundry area with original old pine boards may be painted with buttermilk paint.
Downstairs full bath with old footed tub. Staircase is at rear hall and accesses two very spacious bedrooms with fireplaces and mantels. Full Bath and office at landing upstairs. Roof on rear on home replaced June 2025.
Deep well and newer pump in well house.
Outbuildings consist of old Mule Barn and another adjacent storage barn which are full of old house parts and will remain with home. Notably this home was owned by Preston S Brooks who became Congressman and who gained national notoriety for his caning of Senator Charles Sumner in Eighteen Fifty Six.
This style is one that is vanishing from the rural landscape.
If you are an Historic and Old House Person, then come make this home your own.
