Wow! You have to see this beautiful Strawberry Plains house built in 1875, just after the Civil War. The name of the town came from the horsemen that rode through the area during the Civil War, as their horses had red stained hooves after walking through the wild strawberry patches. This beautifully preserved home is affectionately named 'The Boxwood House' after the 100 year old boxwood tree in the front lawn. The families that have been lucky enough to be the caretakers of this property over its rich history have tastefully renovated it to offer a rare blend of historic charm and modern comfort. Spanning 3600 sq ft and nestled on over 2 acres of private, serene land, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom estate exudes timeless elegance. As you approach, the original stonework on the covered porch immediately captures your attention, inviting you into a world where historic craftsmanship meets modern luxury. Inside, stunning original hardwood floors and seven fireplaces add warmth and character to every room, showcasing the home's rich history. The large kitchen, complete with white cabinetry, custom built-ins, a reverse osmosis system for drinking water, and high-end appliances, blends historic charm with modern convenience, making it the perfect space for both daily living and entertaining. The spacious living and dining areas are adorned with fireplaces, providing cozy, intimate spaces for gatherings. Outdoors, the beautifully maintained gardens offer a tranquil escape, while a sparkling swimming pool provides the perfect place to unwind. French doors from the main living area open to the pool area, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A picturesque creek runs through the property, adding to the serene ambiance, and invites you to enjoy the natural beauty of the surroundings. This estate also includes a 3-car detached garage, offering plenty of storage and functionality. Whether you're exploring the peaceful grounds or relaxing by the creek, this historic gem provides an unparalleled connection to nature and the past. Perfect as a private residence or a historic retreat, this property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of living history. Please come and visit, we're sure you'll love it.

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.
