Live in a home that talks to you. Literally this home talks. Walk across the 136 year old hard pine floors, they resonate subtle sounds, unlike the concrete and chemically made components of modern homes, this home is organic. Built in 1889 with dense old southern pine. The original floors are in every room with the exception of kitchen and baths. The baseboards are 9 inches tall of rich beauty, the casing is 5 inches of solid stained wood. The dining room has six foot wainscoting of sold wood. This type of old pine started disappearing in the early 1900's. If you could find old pine trees, to get that wood custom milled into the floors and molding would be grotesquely expensive. The woodworking is one of the many treasures of this home. Look at the 28 panels of glass in the main area, you'll see that the majority of the panels still have the wavy glass. Before the early 1900's glass was hand made and had slight waves, therefore wavy glass. The craftsmanship required to build this home needs to be honored. You will be living in a museum. If you desire the trendy neutral grey home, run from this home. This home needs stewards. A family that is willing to immerse themselves in one of a kind estate. The home sits up high on the 2.7 acres looking down to frontage on Mirror Lake. The property needs a nice garden and maybe a few chickens. The kitchen is new, upstairs bathroom is new, the wiring was redone. The home has central heat and air. There are window units in the bedrooms for added comfort. We can take you into the basement to see the strength of the structure and the old heating stove. I hope you can appreciate the hard rough cut dimensional lumber, the piers and the craftsmanship of the construction. There is a 4 stall carport that was probably for the carriages and maybe horse stalls at one time. It's attached to what was used as tack room with hayloft above. For fun checkout the post supporting the carport roof, I hope you enjoy. The building needs some work, it has potential. I despise the word potential. Two dollars will buy you a lottery ticket with lots of potential. When I say the barn has potential, it will take time and money to convert it to a guest apartment, office or whatever you choose. It does seem like it's begging to be brought back into more than a storage area. Look to the east of the barn and you will see an old metal structure that was a water tower at one time. I'm thinking awesome tree house for the kids. There's so much going on here, be prepared to spend some time and absorb the history, uniqueness and beauty of this property.
