Step back in time without sacrificing modern comfort in this beautifully preserved 1880 Victorian home, situated on 0.82 acres in the heart of Owensville. Rich with historic charm and timeless architectural details, this spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath residence offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history while enjoying thoughtful updates for today’s lifestyle.
From the moment you enter, you’ll be captivated by the character throughout, including original pocket and panel doors, vintage hardware, and a blend of hardwood, laminate, and carpet flooring that complements the home’s classic appeal. Multiple living spaces, including a formal dining room, office, mudroom, and main-level laundry room, provide flexibility for everyday living, entertaining, or working from home.
The second and third floors offer generous bedroom space, including a private upper-level suite, while the home’s unique dumbwaiter shaft—currently not in service—offers the opportunity to restore a distinctive historic feature.
Outside, the property offers just as much character. Enjoy peaceful mornings from the rear decks on both the first and second floors overlooking the fenced backyard. Gardeners and nature lovers will appreciate the established variety of edible and flowering plants throughout the property, including strawberries, blueberries, mint, thyme, a peach tree, mulberry trees, black walnut, elderberries, wild grapes, Japanese quince, honeysuckle, and wild violets—a wonderful collection that adds beauty, seasonal interest, and homegrown possibilities.
Recent improvements include new gutters, replacement of both furnaces, a new dishwasher in 2025, and a new water heater to be installed. The stone foundation has been professionally reinforced by Foundation Recovery Systems and includes a transferable warranty, along with new interior basement stairs. A detached shed provides additional storage with the potential to reconnect power.
Historic elegance, established gardens, modern updates, and incredible character make this one-of-a-kind Victorian truly special. Schedule your private showing today and experience this beautiful piece of Owensville history for yourself!
