    ***Seller is offering $2500 Incentive to use as YOU WISH... towards Interest Rate Buy Down, closing costs or off sales price*** Discover the perfect blend of history & modern living in this completely renovated 1914 Arts & Craft inspired Bungalow. Every detail of this home has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its timeless character and charm. Nestled in the heart of Downtown Jefferson, this gem offers the ultimate in convenience! It is located walking distance from top-rated schools, charming shops he & city’s dining & entertainment options. The wide front porch w/ its 1900’s build influences of stone exterior and artistic front railings, is not only welcoming, but beacons you to slow down and enjoy time outside waving to your neighbors and walkers or enjoying meals here. Be sure to ring the original doorbell as you enter the house into the Gathering Foyer with beautiful fireplace (sealed) and chandelier. To your right, through the original pocket doors, is the Family Room with another fireplace (sealed). Make sure you look up and notice the exquisite bead-board ceilings throughout the home and the second set of working pocket doors to kitchen. This gorgeous kitchen was not a renovation from a “Kitchen Store”, but it was meticulously designed to keep w/ the integrity of an older home. Cabinets were rescued from a 1930’s home, refurbished & retrofitted to work in this kitchen. Kitchen conforms with the home, but performs like a modern chef boasting Gas 5 burner Ranger with Dual Fuel, Pot Filler, Solid Surface Countertops, Stainless Vent Hood, Farm Sink, Dishwasher and Refrigerator! Island provides work surface and Breakfast bar. French doors from kitchen open to Grilling and Morning Coffee Deck. Mini- Homesteading ready with persimmon, olives, peaches, guava, bananas, pomegranates, figs and blueberries. Bring the garden back that used to flourish behind the carriage house and you are set! Off the Kitchen is the Owner’s Suite. Home has been just recently re-designed to provide a truly designated and private owner’s suite offering rear back entrance, huge walk-in closets, laundry area and beautiful ensuite with claw foot tub upgraded now for shower, too! Off kitchen is Dining Nook – but, as with any older home there are no true “designated” spaces, and all can be used to fit with owner’s lifestyle! The second large bedroom provides 3rd fireplace (sealed), entrance to porch and bathroom. Front room to left of Foyer with 4th fireplace has been used for many purposes in the past, all depending on living needs… A 3rd bedroom (has closet), a Formal Dining Room, office or work out space! Home boasts the original beadboard ceilings, 2 sets of pocket doors, many of the original doors are on slides to give more space, insulated windows, newer hardwood floors, fresh interior wall and trim paint, 4 fireplaces throughout (sealed) and plenty of storage space for home’s age! What you cannot see: all foam insulation, newer electric, plumbing- including new sewer line to street, newer HVAC and hardshell ductwork, vapor barrier in crawl space with lights. New custom garage doors, and new siding and windows on Carriage House/Garage. Landscaping has been revitalized and multiple fruit bearing trees/bushes planted to give back that original Homestead feel! BONUS- The Detached 2 car garage – Carriage House has wonderful areas for storage now or is ready to finish for future studio, office or guest suite. Behind Carriage House is even more yard, where once the large family garden was located. The big circular driveway around the old oak tree is not only eye-catching but provides additional off street parking for guests! Homes like this can no longer be built or replicated, the high-demand lots on which they reside will never again be available, and the history-charm that comes along with them, will never be seen on an “upgrades” feature for a new home! Don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind Downtown Gem!!
