Opportunity to own a Historic house that was part of Eakles Mill, circa 1890. With its' German heritage Eakles Mill was part of a railroad stop and included a flouring and grist mill, the Mt. Olivet UB Church (1887), two shops, a store, a warehouse and a school. The house displays 1880's architecture with arched-brick windows, 3-sided bay window to the south side (perhaps to view mill ground), two front doors and what still can be seen on the brickworks as the footprint of a grand, ornate front porch and two front doors. In the past 5 years, the owner has totally renovated this home to include new electrical, new plumbing and a new HVAC System. The bathrooms were totally renovated and are gorgeous. An exceptional kitchen was just completed and includes granite countertops, new appliances and an impressive island that is 8' x 4'-6". You will love the attractive and durable laminate plank flooring on the entire main level. The original pine flooring on the 2nd floor has been sanded with a natural finish. The house boasts 2,856 sq. ft. of finished living space. The main level features large rooms that begin with an impressive 14' x 9' entry foyer that leads into the 26' x 13' living room and the 19' x 13'-6" dining room with a masonry, wood-burning fireplace, Most impressive is the 25'-10" x 14'-9" kitchen with a spacious table space. A first floor powder room is just off the foyer. Upstairs are 4 Bedrooms and 2 Full Bathrooms that includes a fabulous owner's bedroom suite that includes a 19'-3" x 14'-6" bedroom area, large walk-in closet and an upscale bathroom with a 6' shower including 2 separate shower heads and a rain shower, plus a double-bowl vanity. Three secondary bedrooms complete this level with an added full hall bathroom. A big surprise and huge bonus space is the attic that is over 600 sq. ft. and includes spray insulation, drywall and HVAC. It wouldn't take much to add more finished living space on this top level. The home is brick and sets on a half-acre homesite. You will love the history of this home, the square footage, the extensive upgrades and the rural setting.
