Step into a piece of Barton County history with this beautifully preserved 1901 gem. This home exudes vintage charm with soaring ceilings, original woodwork, and completely refinished hardwood floors throughout. A true conversation piece, the kitchen features cabinetry salvaged from the historic Ellinwood Wolf Hotel—installed in the 1920s—adding a unique and storied touch to the heart of the home. A butler’s pantry offers additional storage and includes a built-in window pass-through, perfect for entertaining. Enjoy spacious, light-filled living areas including a parlor enhanced by a beautiful baby grand piano, a formal dining room, and a large living room perfect for gatherings. Period-specific chandeliers grace many of the rooms, enhancing the home's vintage elegance. Upstairs, you’ll find four generously sized bedrooms all on one level, each with ample closet space. The large upstairs bathroom features a classic clawfoot tub, inviting you to relax in style. Outdoor living is just as inviting, thanks to a brand-new composite deck and privacy fence—perfect for family hangouts and summer evenings. Additional updates include a whole-house generator installed in 2024 for peace of mind, high-end tile in the kitchen that blends seamlessly with the home’s historic aesthetic, newer wiring, and updated windows. Floor-level laundry, excellent storage throughout, and thoughtful details in every room make this home not only a historical treasure but also a comfortable and functional space for modern living...
