Property Description
"Fern Manor" was built in 1890. The tale of this house is that it was built for a never married daughter of the Wallace family. The Wallaces also lived right next door in the original building. Wallicia, the original house, was the family homestead. One of the members of the family was Dr. William S. Wallace, brother-in-law and doctor to Abraham Lincoln.
Fern Manor does not lack character. The outside of this house has a slight "gingerbread house" feel. The original details on the peaks of the house and windows add to that old world charm. When you walk around to the back of the house you can see the same detailing on the back porch. Sit on the back porch and look into the yard. You can see its a great place to relax and drink your morning coffee. During the Spring and Summer months the house is surrounded by beautiful foliage and sweet perennials. It blooms in all different colors making the perfect spring scene. When entering the front porch, take a look at the exquisite view of fields and mountains behind you.Walk through the front door into the foyer and you are faced with a beautiful staircase. Making your way around the house youll notice original wood floors and original hardware throughout. The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops. While you are in there, be sure to take a peek inside the butlers pantry. Its almost completely hidden to the right of the fridge. Downstairs also has a formal dining room for entertaining and a living room to lounge in. The four bedrooms are upstairs along with the 2 full bathrooms. In the attic, there is plenty of storage and also a small room that is mostly finished. This room could be used for an office, craft area, or maybe a seasonal closet. The last place in this house that you have to explore is the partially finished basement. This room would make a great family or game room, or you could use it for an extra bedroom.
