The Rita Knox Mansion is a "walk through history" experience. The unique carved woodwork, fireplaces, staircases and additional historical features from the 1840s are still present. Work has been completed that now gives way for the new owner to use their craftsman's ability to restore the home. The rich interior design allows for several choices of room use including several hidden closets. The home needs TLC and is selling in "as is where is" condition. Structural interior work was done along with tuck pointing of exterior walls in 2024. In 2022 several new floor joists were installed in the large basement. The spacious Carriage House, tuck pointed in 2024, could be converted into living quarters or enjoyed as is. The property is being sold in "as is where is" condition. Shown by appointment only.
