Formerly the Whitaker School (1845-1931), this home is truly one of a kind and features gorgeous architecture and an abundance of space! Upon arrival, you'll notice the beautiful stone foundation and elegant entryway. The foyer is pristine, bright and showcases what is believed to be an original chalk board from the Whitaker School. Choose from either door that leads to a stunning open-concept first-floor living area complete with beautiful hardwood flooring, huge kitchen and ample room for dining, gathering, and even a spot for an office or play-space! The first floor can be used as-is or perhaps sectioned off further if desired. A full bathroom with tub/shower combo and the laundry room just off the side-door round out the main level. The second floor is metered separately from the first floor and features it's own kitchen, living room, and even has space for a dining room table! Additionally, the upstairs has two bedrooms, a bonus room, and a massive full bathroom. The basement and crawlspace make for great storage locations. Outside, the .67-acre property includes a fenced yard with a swinging gate across the massive driveway - you won't have to worry about shuffling cars with as many vehicles as it can accommodate! Upgrades include basement and crawlspace waterproofing/encapsulation (2021), new well pump (2022), new windows downstairs (2022), first floor mini-split (2023), and new 10x16 shed (2023)!
