**BRING OFFERS**
Ever wanted to own a piece of history?
Welcome to the Morse-Freyou House, c. 1893, a rare 2,500 square foot Victorian gem resting on a .47 acre city lot surrounded by a generous front lawn, side yard and backyard. This beauty has been meticulously and lovingly restored and modernized with newly installed electrical, HVAC, plumbing, roof and insulation, leveling and foundation stabilization, while keeping its historic integrity. Step across the long front porch, supported by the original restored cypress columns, and enter the entryway and living room, which boasts nine-foot ceilings and features a glorious bayed window – one of six in the home – with leaded glass accents. All but one of the original mouth-blown glass window panes remain intact. The open floor plan boasts new solid oak hardwoods and premium vinyl planks and flows into the dining area and kitchen, which has been modernized and redesigned with an island, granite counters and new cabinets. A powder room and laundry room complete the rear of the home, while a new first-story master suite stuns with a huge bay window. The attached master bath is a dream with a walk-in glass shower, freestanding ornate slipper tub under a lovely leaded glass window, double vanity sinks and dual walk-in closets. Let’s not forget the awe-inspiring staircase! The graceful, bayed cypress two quarter turn stairway is a showstopper with its original newel, balusters and rail, bayed landing and seating nook. A loft sitting room rests at the top, featuring original long-leaf pine floors and doorway to the upstairs porch. Along a central hallway are two spacious bedrooms with ample closets, a separate cedar closet and linen closet, phone niche and full hall bathroom. Another complete master suite is nestled at the end of the hallway, along with a roomy closet and full bath.
Home has a tall roofline and massive attic that includes a turret. Two-car carport at rear of home includes plenty of storage area. Flood zone X, which typically means no flood insurance required by lender! Call today for your private showing!
