The Dunnan-Hampton House is listed on the National Register of Historic Places - established is 1897. When the Hampton's purchased this home it was apartments. They tore out some walls and found a truly awesome fireplace and pocket doors. Today, take a walk down memory lane with Charlotte and let her tell the history they have found. New boards were just added to the front of the home. The boards can't be painted for about a year so we'll let you add the finishing touches. Enjoy the front porch or the side porch - both are a joy to sit at either morning, noon, or night. Enjoy walking thru these front doors. Home features woodwork, some wood flooring, stain glass and so much more. Open staircase. You can stand in the foyer and look up to the very top - as it was way back when. The Parlor area features stain glass; wood plants and built in cabinets. Formal dining room with chandelier. Kitchen features tin ceilings, check out the stove, and then go to the preparation kitchen (which is noted as second kitchen area below). Laundry room on main level area. Owner has added a garage after they purchased. There is a medicine cabinet that was made from wood from the coal room. There is a cabinet in the family room that came from a bookcase. What a woodworker Mr. Hampton was. Fireplace with grand detail. They have researched the history and info is on the mantel. One full bath on main level and two full baths on upper level. There is so much detail and history on this home that we won't mention it all; you must come see and enjoy the beauty of this home. Walk up to third floor area; check out the view and spinning wheel. Family room measurements are the Parlor area; Could have 5th bedroom (no closet); used as sewing room off of the master suite. Some rooms are irregular size so some are estimated. Nice corner lot with lot size of 95 x 160. The home is just too big now and we are ready to downsize to a one level home. Owner would like to leave some of the furniture just for you. Please call ahead to preview this home. We hope you will enjoy this home as much as the Hampton's has. Much love, work, and history will be enjoyed by all who enter in the front door. Welcome home.
