One of the most iconic homes in the area, the former John Hill Matthews House, is sure to capture the hearts of nostalgic home lovers everywhere! This turn-of-the-century Victorian-era residence is painted a soft romantic pink that is welcoming and friendly. This grand estate invites you in with a wraparound porch that curls gracefully to a circular sitting area- perfect for sweet tea and sunset conversations. Featuring lovely hardwood floors, beautifully crafted period trim and moldings as well as antique chandeliers and light fixtures throughout, five cozy sitting areas, three sun-filled living areas, an elegant formal dining room and a generous kitchen complete with large pantry, leading to a morning room just right for the whole family to enjoy breakfast or a casual meal. Downstairs, the primary bedroom is a comfortable retreat with a private sitting area and fireplace, including ensuite bathroom, roomy closets and a path through to the utility room. Upstairs you’ll discover five charming bedrooms, each with stately door frames and transom windows, 2 full bathrooms, a game table reading nook and a sizable separate relaxation area for guests or children. Outside the over half acre of well-manicured grounds have much to offer with shaded gathering places, sprawling green lawns, and an area for summer BBQS. A 20 x 40 detached garage is ample space for parking and storage, but the massive carriage house remains and provides endless possibilities! Elegant and timeless, dream large!
