A beautiful brick home rich in charm and history, located in the heart of Wetumpka. Conveniently situated within walking distance of the breathtaking Coosa River, downtown restaurants, shops, and historic Bibb Graves River Bridge. Convenient to parks, walking trails, pickleball courts, schools, sports complex, hospital and physicians, grocery store, and banks. Using Wetumpka’s extensive citywide sidewalk system, you can walk or bike to any of these destinations.
The large front porch is a page right out of Wetumpka history, with the attached carport originally built for your carriage. Beautiful flowers, mature trees, and established landscaping include a famous magnolia believed to be one of the largest on record. It has been featured in books and articles and has been the subject of countless photographs over the years.
Updates include a tankless gas water heater, HVAC systems for both upstairs and downstairs, all new ductwork, updated plumbing, and updated electrical throughout, including the electrical panel and hardwired smoke detectors, as well as original-style wood-paned windows, tiled kitchen floors, and a remodeled bathroom.
Original features include solid wood flooring and exterior doors, original hardware, light fixtures, telephone niche, original-style weight-and-pulley windows with sash cords, high ceilings, large rooms and abundant windows. Additional fixtures have been preserved and stored in the attic along with tongue-and-groove wood pieces.
On the main floor, three oversized rooms, 2½ bathrooms, a large open farm-style kitchen with breakfast nook, an oversized formal dining room surrounded by windows with views of the magnolia, and a grand family room blend historic character with modern living.
Just off the laundry/mud room, a stairwell leads from the back entrance to an oversized upstairs room ready for your vision, complete with hobby counter/desk space, walk-in closet, extra storage room, and plumbing in place for a 4th bathroom.
