This is a rare opportunity to own a large 5 bedroom home built in 1868 that features lots of original woodwork, including a classic deacons bench inside the foyer area. The location is ideal, near the historical downtown Negaunee, where you can enjoy the charm and history of the area as well as dining and night life. The home has a natural gas brick fireplace with built-in bookshelves, adding warmth and coziness to the oversized living room. Some of the original light fixtures and leaded glass windows have been preserved, giving the home a unique character. The hardwood floors under the blue carpet are waiting to be restored to their former glory. The formal dining room is perfect for hosting family and friends. The home has 1.5 bath and spacious rooms throughout. There is a walk-up attic that can be used for extra storage or converted into a bonus room. The back staircase ( butlers stairs) add a little extra convenience when going between the first and second floor. The 9 foot ceilings create a sense of openness and space. The walk-out Michigan basement has laundry and storage facilities. You'll be impressed with the 3 car garage that measures 40 x 29, has 200 amp service and a giant workshop area! Make pies and applesauce from the huge apple tree located in the backyard! This is a home that combines history, elegance and functionality in one package.
