Every inch of the house house has been meticulously restored with incredible attention to detail by the current owners who've delighted in 30 happy years in their treasure of a home. A traditional foyer is flanked by spacious living and formal dining rooms. An attractive bright, cheerful sunroom across the rear of the house was an addition - and currently serves as the home's primary living space. Large windows overlook the lovely backyard - which offers a surprising feel of privacy for an ''in town'' lot. 3 large bedrooms and 2 full baths are on the 2nd floor, and the 3rd floor has been finished into a wonderful rec room and loft space. This is one of the few homes in Edenton with full double tier porches - and porches are a lifestyle in this quaint southern town! A smokehouse in the backyard pre-dates the home, and a recently rebuilt 2 car detached garage provides convenience. This home is a wonderful combination of historic charm with modern updates - really, the best of both worlds! Stunning wood floors, lovely woodwork, an abundance of natural light and extraordinarily spacious rooms are highlights! Enjoy strolling downtown to shops and restaurants from this convenient location in the heart of Edenton's famed historic district. Come join us in the ''Prettiest Little Town in the South!''
