Welcome to 1718 Avery Street, where historic charm meets everyday comfort in the heart of Parkersburg’s historic district. Listed on the National Historical Registry, this beautifully maintained home offers a thoughtful blend of timeless character and practical updates—both inside and out. Step onto the wide southern-style front porch, perfect for enjoying warm evenings or morning coffee. Inside, original hardwood floors carry throughout the main level, complemented by built-in cabinetry, French doors, and original pocket doors that add charm and function to the living spaces. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and a spacious pantry with pull-out shelving. Upstairs, you’ll find multiple spacious bedrooms, along with the convenience of a second-floor laundry—no more hauling baskets up and down stairs. The third floor adds even more flexibility with additional bedrooms, a full bath, and bonus storage or creative space. Outdoor living is a standout here. The backyard features a fully fenced area for privacy, pets, or play. A screened-in, covered deck offers the perfect spot to relax in the shade, while the connected open-air deck is ideal for summer gatherings, grilling, or stargazing. Native West Virginia perennials like lavender, thyme, and asparagus add natural beauty and a sense of peace throughout the seasons. With a detached garage equipped with electric and so many unique, welcoming features, this home is a rare opportunity to enjoy both history and comfort in a truly special setting.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
