Property Description

Historic Craftsman Charm Restored Steps from Downtown sits a home that's been brought back to life with care - and it shows in every detail. Originally built in 1912, this Craftsman/Bungalow has been thoughtfully restored by its current owner, who preserved the soul of the home while modernizing where it truly mattered. The result is a rare blend: old-world character paired seamlessly with everyday comfort. Step onto the inviting front porch - the kind built for slow evenings and through a beautiful foyer into soaring 12-foot beamed ceilings, original hardwood floors throughout. Mostly original windows let in natural light without the drafts or sky-high power bills you might expect from a century-old home. The main level offers true everyday livability: a large living room, separate family room or 5th BR, and a dedicated home office or 4th BR. The updated kitchen strikes the perfect balance - modern function with updated cabinetry and old-world character mixed in just right. Your main-floor primary suite is a standout, featuring an upgraded en-suite bath with a separate soaking tub and a large tiled shower. Upstairs, two oversized bedrooms offer suite-like living, each with abundant storage - one featuring its own recently upgraded en-suite bath with new vanity and tub/shower combo. Need more space? A large storage area in the walk-in crawl space/basement area has you covered. Outside, a newly built deck and the existing above-ground pool (negotiable - stays or goes with the sale) make this backyard built for entertaining and everyday enjoyment alike. Location is everything here. You're walking distance to Downtown Commerce's charming restaurants and shops, in the highly regarded Commerce school district, minutes from I-85 access, and just a short drive to Tanger Outlets or the vibrant Athens, GA area - the best of small-town charm with big convenience. This one-of-a-kind home offers character you can't manufacture and updates you'll actually appreciate.
