Property Description

Feel the rich history at 1328 N Benton Avenue. Upon arrival, you'll notice the coach step outside by the street and the concrete horse post to tie your old stallion to when you were here to visit 130 years ago. The original brick walkway leads you to the covered front porch, which has hosted many guests, families, and memories over time, and even features a gold-plated history plaque. Unmatched detail in the woodworking that surrounds the house and a front door as unique as they come. Walk in to imagine the old record playing and a fresh cup of tea to sit in the formal living room true to its time, still with the original pocket doors and hardwood floors. This house is equipped with systems of times past, like fuses, central heat only with window air, large trees to keep the house relatively cool, bay windows in the kitchen for yelling at the kids that dinner is ready, and unique light fixtures that will outlast the cheap junk of today. Outside is a barn/garage/storage area that has seen better days, but is still 100% functional for its use, as well as a little playhouse that can be used for play or even a pet home. This is truly one of a one-of-a-kind home that will take a special buyer who enjoys the luxuries of yesterday and not futuristic tomorrow. At less than $85/square foot, this is a bargain.
