This is the kind of home they don’t build anymore. The charm is here. The big projects aren’t... Built in 1887, the Louis Oetting House delivers real craftsmanship you can feel the second you walk in, without asking you to take on a renovation project to enjoy it. The heavy lifting has already been done. Now you just get to live in it... The home now offers four bedrooms, including a main-level flex room that works as a guest room, office, or extra bedroom. Inside, you’ll find refinished heart-of-pine...This is the kind of home they don’t build anymore. The charm is here. The big projects aren’t... Built in 1887, the Louis Oetting House delivers real craftsmanship you can feel the second you walk in, without asking you to take on a renovation project to enjoy it. The heavy lifting has already been done. Now you just get to live in it... The home now offers four bedrooms, including a main-level flex room that works as a guest room, office, or extra bedroom. Inside, you’ll find refinished heart-of-pine floors, original woodwork, crown molding, and an updated kitchen with stone countertops, custom cabinets, and newer appliances. The primary suite includes a renovated bathroom with a walk-in stone shower... Two oversized bedrooms upstairs share an updated full bath and give you the kind of space that actually lets you get creative with how you live, work, or set things up... The finished walkout lower level adds about 550 sq ft of usable space with an office area, gas fireplace, storage, and access to the backyard patio. Outdoor spaces include a covered front porch and rear patio, perfect for quiet mornings or easy entertaining. An oversized detached two-car garage adds everyday function and storage... Recent improvements include fresh paint touch-ups to trim and high-use areas, along with landscaping updates that help the home show clean, cared for, and ready... For added peace of mind, the seller is offering a home warranty to the buyer... And then there’s Augusta. A small town with real character, real history, and the kind of pace that makes you want to slow down and enjoy where you live... A lot of historic homes ask you to fall in love first and deal with the work later. This one already handled the work. Now it’s just waiting for someone to enjoy the good part...
