Overview

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.
