Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of Mercer County history. The historical Prentiss house built in 1902 is waiting to be called home again! This elegant home has 4 bedrooms and 2 baths with hardwood flooring throughout the main living area and gorgeous woodwork details. Relax with your favorite book in the library/home office while enjoying the added warmth of the wood burning fireplace. Along with the character one expects in a historic home, this house has modern conveniences including a whole house generator, an oversized 2 car garage, and comes with plenty of storage. The open and finished attic space was used for hosting dances in yesteryear, but would make a perfect hobby room today. You can enjoy the warmer months from your swing on the spacious wraparound porch. Call today for a personal showing.
