Step back in time to one of Monett's rare finds: a beautiful carthage stone home, masterfully balanced with restoration and upgrades. Transom windows, pocket doors, and wood flooring evoke the charm of yesteryear. The current owner invested countless hours painstakingly working to make this treasure shine. The front porch is a grand feature and from the moment you enter, you'll feel the uniqueness of this place. The vestibule entry remains intact. The owner, with a keen eye, recognized the importance of a large kitchen/dining space and designed a perfect blend of primitive yet modern elements, including a double oven, marble tile, countertops, and handmade cabinetry, lovingly crafted by them. The primary bedroom is on the main floor, along with a bath and utility room. A pass-through office area offers ample display and work space, featuring a vintage stained glass transom as a nod to the past. The owner added the upstairs, which includes three generously sized bedrooms with spacious closets, a full bath, and a family room area. There is a small storage and mechanical room basement, and the detached garage, once a carriage house, has been transformed into an ideal auxiliary space or out-of-the-home office. This completes the property, perfect for guests, an office, or a hobby room. Opportunities to own such a beauty are rare.
