Description

Step back in time to a meticulously restored home of great craftsmanship and history located in the central core of Jeffersons Historic Riverfront District, the Speake House. The home was built in 1859 in the Greek Revival style of architecture. It was remodeled in the early 20th century with the addition of a wrap around porch. From high ceilings to a wide central hallway designed for entertaining, there is a sense of spaciousness. With 2822 square feet, four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, an updated, sizable kitchen and hardwood floors, this home allows gracious ease of living with its modern conveniences. Carefully restored and enhanced as a comfortably refined home, this property is notable for its details and tasteful ensemble of living areas. Recently renovated, the home was taken down to the studs and then returned to its grandeur. The home boasts new bathrooms and plumbing, a completely rewired electrical system, new duct work and light fixtures and a renovated kitchen. The thirty-six-inch gas stove with six burners, the granite counter tops, and the beautiful, new cabinets add additional charm to this historic home. The front door and side lights have beveled windows and the large windows throughout the home provide natural light and wonderful views of the tree shaded 0.51-acre lot. The wraparound front and side porches have ceiling fans and hanging baskets with attached watering features. The formal living and dining rooms, all four bedrooms, a half bath and the kitchen all open onto the central hallway. The quiet, corner lot with large oak trees completes the overall ambiance of this historic property. There is also a decorative, Victorian chicken coop! Come and make this picturesque property yours. THE HOME IS BEING SOLD WITH RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS.
