Can you say - OMG!!! Built in the late 1800s and offering approximately 5,500 sq ft on 5 acres, this is the kind of home you don’t simply walk through—you experience it!! And the property? Hidden away with a creek and a waterfall?? And if 5 acres aren’t enough, an additional 12 acres are available! There is nothing like the sights and sounds of moving water! But great news! The house is NOT in a flood zone and flood insurance is NOT required. The huge covered back porch offers a ceiling fan, lighting and built-in entertainment center with storage—an amazing place to entertain or just relax and watch the deer. Enter through the spacious foyer and prepare to be in awe! Soaring ceilings, mostly wood floors, oversized rooms and incredible character are everywhere! The main level offers four large rooms, 3 wood-burning fireplaces, a half bath, a butler’s room (could be a first-floor suite) and a spacious kitchen with tons of storage and doors that will take you across the yard to your very own waterfall. . You can head upstairs near the kitchen or experience the gorgeous staircase from the foyer which leads to a wide upper hallway where you will find up to 6 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. Four bedrooms are grouped near the main staircase—3 with original fireplaces and all 4 with their own charming (currently disconnected) sinks. The fireplaces are boarded but remain an incredible part of the home’s history. (The previous owner felt they could be opened back up.) The main bath features heated floors, a clawfoot tub, a glass shower, double vanity and tons of nearby storage. Two additional bedrooms and another bath are down the hall, with one featuring a gas pellet stove. There is also a huge full basement with two staircases, and an insane amount of storage. The massive attic has a 2nd level continuing up into the tower. With a circular driveway, expansive grounds, soaring ceilings, fireplaces, a tower, creek and your own waterfall, and up to 17 acres of land.....this incredible home is anything but cookie-cutter! If you’ve been waiting for a home that makes you stop at the front door and say “Wow!” this may be the one!!
