This stunning Craftsman represents the perfect marriage of timeless character & contemporary comfort, w/ a complete restoration that began in 2021 & transformed every corner of this special property. A Home that welcomes you-From the moment you arrive, the wraparound porch sets the tone for gracious living. Original to the home's character, this inviting space beckons you to slow down & savor the charm of downtown life. The newly installed 8x8 wood porch columns paired w/ 4x10 timbers and stainless steel railing create an impressive entrance that honors the home's Craftsman heritage while offering modern durability. Featuring thoughtfully designed living spaces- step inside to discover breathtaking original hardwood floors that have been meticulously refinished & re-stained, bringing them back to their original glory. These floors flow throughout the home, creating continuity & warmth that only authentic character can provide. The spacious living room is ample room for both everyday relaxation & entertaining, while the kitchen serves as the heart of the home. Here, you'll find plenty of cabinet & counter space, enhanced w/ new cabinet doors, quality hardware & tasteful granite countertops in modern yet classic colors. The open connection to the dining area creates a natural flow that's perfect for family meals & gatherings. 3 bedrooms provide flexibility for your lifestyle, w/ 2 generously oversized rooms that adapt easily to your needs. Both full bathrooms have been completely reimagined w/ quality finishes throughout. The hall bathroom features a new tub/shower combination, ceramic tile, granite-top vanity & updated fixtures, while the primary bathroom boasts a walk-in shower w/ the same attention to detail & quality materials. Practical touches that matter- the rear entrance opens to a functional mudroom-a thoughtful space that offers potential for additional shelving, pantry expansion or laundry room extension. These are the kinds of practical details that make daily life more convenient & organized. Boasting quality throughout, this isn't just a surface renovation. The home has been upgraded with new wiring & electrical panel, completely new plumbing, fresh paint, new fixtures & hardware & all new interior doors. The exterior received equal attention w/ new fiber cement siding, fresh fascia & soffit, & a new architectural shingle roof installed in 2021, plus 3 new exterior doors. The Crown Jewel: A One-of-a-Kind Timber Frame Carport. What truly sets this property apart is the magnificent 24x34 timber frame carport—a locally sourced, custom-built masterpiece that you simply won't find anywhere else in downtown Pickens. This isn't just functional; it's a work of art. The concrete pad underneath creates the perfect foundation for outdoor entertaining, whether you envision it as a covered gathering space with tables & chairs, a fire pit area, or simply practical covered parking. This substantial structure adds both value & versatility to the property. Your private retreat; the rear yard offers something increasingly rare in downtown settings: a peaceful, private oasis w/ lush grass & mature landscaping that creates natural serenity. It's your own slice of tranquility, yet you're just steps away from everything downtown Pickens has waiting for you. This prime location puts you w/in easy walking distance of local shops, restaurants & community events, while still providing the privacy & space of a well-established neighborhood. You'll enjoy the best of both worlds—small-town charm w/ modern convenience. The bottom line, this isn't just a house; it's a carefully crafted home that honors its past while embracing the future. Every detail has been considered, every upgrade has been executed w/ quality materials & craftsmanship & the result is a property that's ready to welcome its next chapter!
