Welcome to this c. 1853 Greek Revival gem, where timeless character meets everyday comfort. From the moment you step into the grand center hall, you're greeted by a classic layout featuring formal living and dining rooms. Original architectural features remain intact including six original fireplaces (non-working) and mantles that bring warmth and charm to all rooms. Solid heart pine floors run throughout, mortise and tenon, timber-frame construction is visible in two upstairs closets. In one closet, one of the Harris sons wrote his initials well over a hundred years ago. You'll also find Artisan wood-grained doors in the home. There is ample storage for easy living. The custom-remodeled kitchen, offering a large island with storage and an impressive Wolf 48'' gas range with dual ovens, 6 burners and a griddle, is a standout and perfect for cooking, gathering, and entertaining. A first-floor bedroom with an attached full bath provides flexible living options, while first-floor laundry adds convenience. Upstairs, a spacious landing creates the perfect spot for a sitting area or reading nook and leads to the primary suite with a large walk-in closet and generous bath. Two additional large bedrooms and a full hall bath complete the upper level. Step outside to the screened-in porch and enjoy the quiet, private country setting. Just minutes from Greenville and Farmville, this home offers peaceful living with easy access to work, dining, and entertainment—the best of both worlds. All historical documents, photos, and a large framed Civil-war era map will pass on to the new owners.
