This is perhaps the oldest home in Paradise, on a half acre lot with carriage house and workshop. This house 'circa 1824' is full of character in keeping with its 'heritage designation' and early use as the baptist parsonage. With wide plank flooring, crown mouldings, stripped pine woodwork, font and back staircases. At this age things are not square and level, but that is what brings out the true charm in this antique gem. Updated electrical, heating, bath and septic system along with other modern touches that make day to day living more comfortable such as the appliances in the kitchen, storage and closets. A large yard with 'rail trail' for walking/hiking/biking/OHV use. Current owners began to convert a loft in shop to an artist's studio with the addition of skylights. Pick up this nearly 200 year old home today for seasonal or year round use. (id:19312)
