Step into history with the Robeson House, built in 1891 and located in the heart of the historic district. This timeless residence showcases many original features, including heart pine floors, detailed moldings, and six-panel doors. A welcoming wraparound porch with ceiling fans offers the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the neighborhood charm.
The main level includes a spacious living room, spacious primary bedroom, large eat-in kitchen, and a dining room currently used as a den. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms and a full bath. Two fireplaces with gas logs add warmth and character throughout.
Modern updates blend seamlessly with historic details. The crawlspace has been encapsulated with a dehumidifier, and a Pelican whole-house water purification system is in place. A detached, air-conditioned garage with workshop includes a central air dispenser linked to a compressor (which conveys), plus a workbench and metal cabinet. Both the home and garage are wired for an outdoor standby generator.
This one-of-a-kind property is just steps from the waterfront, where shops, dining, and galleries await. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history in an unbeatable location.
