Understated elegance defines this historic Covington home priced below appraisal. The porch welcomes all who cross its threshold into a generous foyer featuring a brick accent wall and wood flooring throughout. The french doors and classic transoms delicately designate a separate space for dining and entertaining. Be prepared to be greeted with an abundance of natural light in the updated kitchen featuring a built-in breakfast nook. The great room boasts an inviting fireplace and opens to a spacious screened-in porch overlooking the backyard, great for either entertaining or peaceful evenings at home. Not one but two primary suites (one up and one down), along with accompanying baths, adorn this 4 bedroom home. A two bedroom guest house fully equipped with a kitchen is a bonus feature for generating additional income. This is a wonderful opportunity to own a piece of local history in the vicinity of all that downtown Covington has to offer!
