Drenched in history, this stunning, 1850's, Pre-Civil War home was referred to as the Showplace of Warrenton, NC. For those who do not know; this area was the playground of the wealthy. Custom built by the renowned Jacob W. Holt, Architect, carpenter/Joiner, the style of the home has Greek and Italianate features that were adapted to local preferences. The home even boasts 2 closets per bedroom; in which most homes of that era had none. From the gorgeous wide oak plank floors with wooden dowels to the intricate mantels (All 7 of them), the multi-piece crown moldings at the top of 12' ceilings, to the detailed brackets surrounding the home just beneath the roofline are all hallmarks of the style and craftsmanship of Holt and his workshop. There are approx. 20 ac of land: home sits on 11 ac in town limits and the remaining 8.4 ac is outside town limits which is zoned agriculture. This would be a gorgeous small horse farm, cattle farm, or mini farm of whatever you want to raise.
