Property Description

Now offered at $425,000 — step into history with this stunning 1900s Craftsman featuring five bedrooms, two primary suites, and eight original decorative fireplaces in the sought-after York-Chester Historic District.

This beautifully restored home blends timeless architectural character with thoughtful updates and major structural improvements already completed, offering both charm and confidence.

The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and built-in cabinetry, creating a perfect balance of historic elegance and everyday functionality. Original craftsmanship is showcased throughout with carved mantlepieces, rich hardwood floors, coffered ceilings, and extensive custom molding.

This spacious residence offers 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths, including two primary suites — one on the main level and one upstairs — providing flexibility for multigenerational living, guests, or work-from-home needs. The main-level primary suite includes a dressing room with abundant storage and organization, creating a private and functional retreat.

Eight original decorative fireplaces are featured throughout the home, including in each of the five bedrooms, as well as the dining room and living room — a rare architectural feature that highlights the home's rich history and craftsmanship.

Major improvements completed by the sellers include foundation stabilization with installation of eight piers, partial foundation wall rebuild, crawl space improvements including vapor barrier and sump pump, and a roof replaced in 2021, allowing buyers to enjoy the character of a historic home without the uncertainty often associated with properties of this era.

Perfect for buyers seeking character, space, and architectural detail not found in new construction, this home offers a unique opportunity to own a true legacy property.

Seller offering a credit with acceptable offer, allowing buyers the opportunity to personalize cosmetic updates to their taste.

Located in the heart of the York-Chester Historic District, just minutes from the FUSE District, CaroMont Health Park, and approximately 20 minutes to Charlotte Douglas International Airport.
