Property Description

A long time ago, before we had a Declaration of Independence, a house was built in what is now the heart of North Deering. Lovingly and carefully maintained over the centuries by just four owners and their families, this spacious, gracious and skillfully modernized home is ready for you to move right in.
Are you looking for historic charm? How about original wide pine flooring and beamed ceilings and a huge fireplace that used to be the kitchen and now houses a woodstove. And speaking of the kitchen, a lovely renovation in 2023 gives you radiant heat in the floor, quartz counters, and cabinets with enough room for every kind of culinary adventure; featuring all new appliances.
Upstairs are four bedrooms and a full, renovated bath, and on the third floor, another bedroom or office or craft room or family room is heated and cooled by a heat pump.
The oversized, attached two car garage is connected to the house via a massive mudroom/laundry room, so you can kick off your boots and stow your gear. And the space over the garage can be a game room or hang out space or even finished into an apartment. In fact, with town approval, there's probably room for an ADU in the back yard, which already has a shed ready to be repurposed.
Surrounded by more than a half-acre of beautiful landscaping, there's room for soccer games and a 50 x 50 garden space so you can grow your own food or flowers. The stone patio under a huge shade maple is a perfect place to share lemonade (or something stronger) with your friends or enjoy a peaceful cup of coffee in the morning. This wonderful tree-lined neighborhood is
walkable to Haverty Park, schools and playgrounds, shopping, and Libs Ice Cream, with easy bus and car access to downtown. This is a chance to be part of the history of our great city in one of its most desirable neighborhoods. Such a gem! You have to see it!
