Situated on a bucolic 2.9 acre site resplendent with old-growth plantings and trees, and leading down to the Little Bogue Falaya River which meanders along the rear of the property, this very special Victorian-era home is a rare mixture of classic architecture and modern amenities. Rarely does one find an historic home with a floor plan imagined for today. Freshly painted throughout the interiors with calming neutral colors, new water heaters, no carpet upstairs and lots of TLC given to the grounds. Featuring beautiful hardwood floors and moldings, a two story main living room with a vaulted ceiling, a formal dining room, a spacious kitchen open to a bright sunroom/keeping area, a huge den flooded with natural light and so much more. Two bedrooms are down with the second floor encompassing the primary suite with its own private balcony overlooking the amazing grounds. A large deck along the back of the home affords the perfect spot for alfresco entertaining and taking in the views. Above the detached garage is a suite with kitchenette and bath, which could be a gym, studio, office, guest suite...the options are endless. Just minutes to downtown Covington and its shops, eateries and events, this one-of-a-kind estate evokes days-gone-by in a private pastoral setting with all the conveniences of modern living.
