Do you want a or the REAL, cannot be replicated 1916 Craftsman with unsurpassed attention to detail, character, and rich in local history? These homes rarely come on the market in the downtown Jefferson historical neighborhoods, and afford the opportunity to walk to town, schools, parks and worship. There are only 3 homes in Jefferson built by Mr. Sanchez in the early 1900's. Inspired by the Arts & Crafts Movement, his homes are known for large front porches, handcrafted stonework, focus on distinct living spaces with homey feelings and extensive use of woodwork and built-ins. You will be awed by the massive porch as you approach this home...the stone pillars, porch swing, and entrances to both Great room and Dining room! The Great room has the characteristic Craftsman anchor, massive fireplace ( with gas logs now) flanked by the gorgeous, custom built-in bookshelves with glass and the beautiful windows above. All the hardwood floors have just been refinished for move-in perfection. Original glass French doors open to both the study with closed fireplace/mantle and to the spectacular large Dining Room with the typical 1900's nook featuring windows above for furniture pieces. Swinging door from Dining Room leads to another Craftsman feature: the cozy eat-in nook, again with the beautiful original built-in for china, or even a bar! Another swinging pass through door leads to the warm kitchen with granite counters and painstakingly saved original top cabinets with glass panes and even the pull-out vegetable storing cabinets! Large walk-in pantry, laundry mud room, full bath and huge deck are off the kitchen for those who ever thought of wanting to enhance the space of kitchen area. Master Bedroom enjoys another focal closed fireplace/mantle, beautiful stained glass on wall remains, large walk-in closet (unusual for this time period) and private entrance to updated full bath. Secondary Bedrooms are equally large and full of light. There is plenty of storage with a cellar- basement accessed from exterior and interior. The grounds are exceptionally manicured and 3/4 fenced. 2 car carport. Newer roof, HVAC and hot wtr heater! The Randolph House is full of Jefferson History and information will be left with home. This home has been on many of the Tour of Homes over the years. Cannot get this location or build this home anymore- once in a blue moon opportunity!
