Property Description
Nestled among the majestic oaks of Old Handsboro, this enchanting 98-year-old cottage is a rare blend of timeless charm and thoughtful modern updates. Situated on grounds that resemble an arboretum, you'll be surrounded by 200- to 300-year-old oak and magnolia trees, a vibrant array of azaleas and camellias, a raised herb garden, fruit trees, and a tranquil meditation garden complete with a koi pond.
Three antique wrought-iron gates frame the picturesque backyard, which also includes a side-entry workshop/garage and a charming greenhouse—perfect for the avid gardener or hobbyist.
Inside, the home radiates historic character. The original fireplace and built-in bookcases anchor the inviting living room, while the formal dining room or study boasts abundant natural light, hardwood floors, and high ceilings. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with quartz countertops, a large farmhouse sink, and freshly painted cabinetry. Adjacent dining and family areas overlook the park-like backyard, offering a peaceful retreat.
The primary bath has been beautifully renovated to reflect the home's vintage appeal while providing modern comfort. With four bedrooms and two full baths, this property offers space, history, and serenity—all just minutes from I-10, Highway 90, and a full range of medical, retail, dining, and educational amenities.
There is truly nothing else like this on the market. Schedule your private tour today and experience the magic of Old Handsboro for yourself.
