Step into a piece of Barton County history with this beautifully preserved 1901 gem. This home exudes vintage charm with soaring ceilings, original woodwork, and completely refinished hardwood floors throughout. A true conversation piece, the kitchen features cabinetry salvaged from the historic Ellinwood Wolf Hotel—installed in the 1920s—adding a unique and storied touch to the heart of the home. A butler’s pantry offers additional storage and includes a built-in window pass-through, perfect for entertaining. Enjoy spacious, light-filled living areas including a parlor enhanced by a beautiful baby grand piano, a formal dining room, and a large living room perfect for gatherings. Period-specific chandeliers grace many of the rooms, enhancing the home`s vintage elegance. Upstairs, you’ll find four generously sized bedrooms all on one level, each with ample closet space. The large upstairs bathroom features a classic clawfoot tub, inviting you to relax in style. Outdoor living is just as inviting, thanks to a brand-new composite deck and privacy fence—perfect for family hangouts and summer evenings. Additional updates include a whole-house generator installed in 2024 for peace of mind, high-end tile in the kitchen that blends seamlessly with the home’s historic aesthetic, newer wiring, and updated windows. Floor-level laundry, excellent storage throughout, and thoughtful details in every room make this home not only a historical treasure but also a comfortable and functional space for modern living..
