Description
Wilson's #1 Historical home is for sale! Many additional projects have been recently completed (May 2026) including updating the kitchen and laundry room, Butlers pantry and adjoining floors to keep them to the vintage of the house. The main staircase which had been covered in carpet for 100+ years has had the carpet removed and the wood stairs revealed and restored. The landscape has been prepared for another year and for the next owner. The house is in very good condition and has been maintained by the current and past owners. Not a fixer upper but a house you can add your own personal touches. Looking for a house that is actually being presented by the owner who knows the uniqueness of the home? The home is much larger in square footage than stated in the listing sq footage as the third floor sq footage is not included in that figure. This home is very original and period, so if you are a home preservationist, this may be the home for you! Built in 1903, this home sits on about 1.5 acres of meticulously landscaped grounds with 2 rare Coastal Redwood trees. With its rich historical charm, the home can be a private residence, Bed & Breakfast, event venue, or investment property. There is a working passenger elevator in the house! Each very large bedroom has its own bathroom. There is a separate carriage house with a 2br/1ba (not included in count) living space. It needs to be restored. Great potential rental income. This is your perfect opportunity to own your own large city estate. There are so many more things to see and hear about this home. As an fyi...All carpets are actually removable rugs. There are beautiful inlaid floors below carpet rugs. It is a special property for the right buyer. We are moving out of state so we motivated to sell. We have house and grounds virtual tour videos. Near Barton College and Historic Downtown Wilson. Property sketch in photos. We do work with Realtors but one is not required to tour the house. Note: Some photo's are AI to give you an idea of what some rooms can look like especially the library where people have wanted a first floor bedroom/guest room/combination office and bedroom.
