Enter through the gates by the white fence and discover paradise right in the heart of the city not far from Town Center. A limestone driveway will lead you through lush landscape and grand oak trees. Beautiful at night with up lighting. This wonderfully restored home sits on 1.84 acres. Enter the foyer from porch and discover beautiful cypress and pine floors throughout, 10-12-14 foot ceilings, large living room, extra large dining room, family/breakfast/sitting/wet bar, office, updated kitchen. Two bedrooms are down and 3 upstairs. Bathrooms are updated. Landing at top of stairs could be sitting area, etc. What a home for entertaining! Add to that the large covered brick patio with outdoor kitchen that can be viewed from family room. A gazebo is a few steps away. Wait, there’s more! A walkway leads to landscaped pond and cottage dating back 200+ years. Cottage has bedroom, kitchen, and f/p. There is large area outside for storage and garages for lots of cars. Owners added large pane windows in den, an open garage, Porte Cochere, generator, new roof in 2020, and sprinkler system is in place. This is a house you have to see to get the full picture. Very interesting history that the owner can provide if you like.
