for $459,900 with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, 1 half bath. This 2,328 square foot home was built in 1930 on a lot size of 0.61.
A seamless blend of timeless design and contemporary functionality, this historic stone cottage offers character, comfort, and the chance to own a piece of history in the heart of Carthage. Essential updates have been taken care of, including new electrical and plumbing (2021), newer HVAC, and a beautifully renovated kitchen with built-in pantry cabinets, granite countertops, modern appliances, and new windows. A bright utility room off the kitchen adds everyday convenience. The main floor also features a large dining room perfect for gatherings, a spacious living room, a cozy study or office space, and half bathroom, all flowing beautifully together. The home’s charm shines through its original architectural details, including the arched doorways, large, covered patio with French doors, plaster-textured walls, and recently refinished hardwood floors. Upstairs, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms and two updated bathrooms, complemented by new vinyl windows. A 900 sq. ft. unfinished basement provides excellent storage or potential expansion space. Sitting on over half-acre lot, one of the largest in the downtown area, the property offers mature trees, a flat yard, and plenty of space for entertaining and enjoying the outdoors. Commuters will appreciate the convenient location near I-40, while still enjoying small-town charm with walkability to downtown Carthage and the high school. Residents can also easily access larger city offerings, with Lebanon just 30 minutes away and 55 miles to downtown Nashville. A home like this is a rare find, timeless craftsmanship, historic character, and modern comforts come together to create a property that invites you to slow down, sip tea on the porch, and watch the sunset. This truly is one to see!
