Step into timeless elegance at the Nunning House—an exquisitely preserved historic estate dating back to the mid-1800s. Enclosed by much of its original wrought iron fencing, this iconic residence offers a rare blend of old-world charm and modern comfort. With five bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, and seven fireplaces, the home is rich in period character, showcasing authentic craftsmanship, original woodwork, historic flooring, and intricate stained-glass windows throughout. Many of the home’s standout features remain true to the original construction, including the fireplaces, millwork, and architectural detailing—elements that are authentic rather than replicated, preserving the property's historic integrity. The recently remodeled eat-in kitchen offers both function and style, perfectly suited for everyday living, while the formal dining room provides a refined space for entertaining guests. Multiple inviting porches overlook the peaceful, landscaped grounds, which bloom beautifully in spring and feature a tranquil waterfall—creating a private oasis in the heart of town. A newer three-car detached garage includes a spacious loft area, offering excellent storage or potential for a studio, office, or guest suite. Thoughtful updates have been made throughout the property, including new HVAC systems, a water heater, storm windows, bathroom renovations, and fresh exterior paint. The original slate roof and copper guttering remain intact and well-maintained, preserving the home's timeless appeal. The walk-out lower level includes a workshop area and offers potential for future expansion. Ideally located within walking distance to downtown shops, dining, and cultural attractions—and with easy access to major highways—the Nunning House is not just a home; it’s a living piece of history. Pride of ownership is evident in every detail of this exceptional property.
