Downtown Jefferson Living! This Craftsman style home cannot be built or replicated, this location/lot will never be available and the history-charm that comes along with this home cannot be added to an “upgrades” list! WELCOME to your 1914 Custom Built Bungalow – The Hood-Hooper Homestead in historic downtown Jefferson! This gorgeous home captures the Arts and Crafts Influence of the early 1900’s builds with its local stone exterior, low and wide spreading porches, artistic front railings, and simplistic design. This front porch is complete with swing and wraps to side with additional entrance into house. If you have dreamed of the true, small-town charm & that image of living on your front porch – this neighborhood is it! When you enter the stunning foyer with fireplace and original bead board ceilings you will be immediately “wowed”. To the right is the entry way, with the original pocket doors, to the Family Room. Family Room boasts another fireplace, views to porch and is open to newly renovated Kitchen. This kitchen was not just “renovated” ….it was meticulously planned to keep with the integrity of an older home. Cabinets were rescued from an early 1930’s home in Decatur, refurbished and retrofitted to work in this home and include 2 pull out old cutting boards built into the cabinets! Other features include: Pot filler, Gas 5 burner, Dual- Fuel Range, Leathered Granite Countertops, Stainless Vent Hood, Farm Sink and French doors that open onto to a perfect coffee sitting or grilling deck! To the rear of the kitchen is a large bedroom plus a Full bath with glamourous Claw Foot tub! If you are familiar with Old Homes… they are awesome, unique and offer spaces to make your own: such as the large space off the kitchen that would make a great breakfast area, dinette space, kids play area or workspace! Master Bedroom offers fireplace, huge closet, renovated bath with large walk-in shower and creative doors from the homestead shutters! All bathrooms have incorporated into them period pieces, from medicine cabinets to sinks. Front Room to left of Foyer could provide dual purposes depending on family needs. This room has 4th fireplace and could be utilized as formal Dining Room, Den, or Office…. but also has closet and has been currently used as a 3rd bedroom. Home boasts the original bead board ceilings throughout, 3 sets of pocket doors, many original doors on slides to give more space, 4 fireplaces (closed) and plenty of storage space for its age! Owner has given so much love and attention to this home - All foam insulation, new electric, new plumbing, New HVAC, New Hardshell Ductwork, Crawlspace with vapor barrier and lights, Termite Bond, Insulated windows, Plantation Shutters in all windows, and new hardwood floors. * Bonus- In 1930’s, a detached Carriage House with 2 car carport/garage & 2 studios was built in rear. It is currently used for storage, but what a starting place for an artist studio, office or 2 guest suites! Right side has room downstairs & upstairs, left side has 2 rooms over garage. Ready for you to create into your own! Great Circular drive around the old oak tree – plenty of parking. #BUNGALOVE! Walk to Jefferson Schools, Downtown, Restaurants- Literally Everything JEFFERSON!
