Perched atop a gentle hill with views of Little Crum Creek Park, this magnificent stone residence stands as an extraordinary testament to American craftsmanship. Built by local master stonemasons using hand-cut stone and finished with classic ribbon mortar pointing, this grand home is available for the first time in 47 years. Its elevated position—sitting 12 to 14 feet above street level—provides privacy and quietude. With four bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and over 2,600 square feet of living space, this home is ready for a full renovation and has been priced accordingly. A walk-up attic offers an excellent potential for increasing the living space. The interior boasts a classic layout, beginning with an elegant entrance, a covered front porch, and a gracious vestibule. A wide entrance hall serves as the perfect gallery to greet guests, leading into a living room characterized by cross-beam ceilings and a large fireplace—ideal for entertaining.
