1230 McKinley Ave NE, Huntsville, AL 35801

This is a gorgeous home with an even more amazing story! It is an original farmhouse from the 1890s (with original floors, doors, hardware, handrail, fireplaces, etc.), but new guts. A tree fell on the house in 2016 and the plumbing, roof, electrical system and panel, and HVAC units for each floor were replaced. It has 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (one with a walk-in shower, one tub/shower), a formal living room, formal dining room, and tons of space that could be used for an office, family room, etc. It has 2,750 square feet and feels every bit that large with 9 ft ceilings. There is a 12x12 underground cellar tall enough to stand in that has a sump pump and pecan wood flooring that could be used as a wine cellar, a storm shelter, and for storage. The appliances are less than a year old and there are new ceiling fans throughout. The wood details, transom windows, built-in features, and floor-to-ceiling beadboard give this house extraordinary charm. It feels like you are walking into Constitution Village when you step through the front door. The wrap around porch is the epitome of southern charm and the large fenced in back yard offers plenty of privacy. The house sits on a double lot on a corner, giving it a little over .25 acres, much of which is landscaped. This was the first house in this area and had 125 acres when it was built, predating the mill down the road. This house is convenient to everything and has a great neighborhood feel. Easily walkable, the house is one mile from Oak Park and a mile and a half from Downtown Huntsville. There is access to trails, parks, and restaurants and shops nearby. Highway 565 access is half a mile away. If you are interested in a historic home with low maintenance, you found a needle in the haystack! We are willing to sell the house furnished (mix of new furniture and antiques) for an additional cost.
