Own a piece of De Kalb history with this stunning 1890 Craftsman home, filled with timeless Southern charm and exceptional craftsmanship. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home welcomes you with a beautiful front entryway that leads into a spacious living area featuring a wood-burning fireplace insert—perfect for cozy evenings. The large kitchen offers ample cabinetry, wood shutters, and a built-in hutch, while the formal dining room provides generous space for gatherings. The primary suite and an additional downstairs bedroom share a convenient Jack-and-Jill bath with a shower, and a second full bathroom on the main level adds flexibility. A sturdy, beautifully crafted staircase leads to an upstairs sitting area, an additional bedroom, and a half bath—ideal for guests or a quiet retreat. With the upstairs living space and the formal dining room, the home offers the potential for up to 5 bedrooms if additional sleeping areas are desired. Throughout the home, you'll discover charming built-ins and original features that make this property truly one of a kind. Enjoy relaxing on the front and back porches, plus the practicality of a two-car attached carport and an outbuilding perfect for storage or space for lawn equipment or a boat. A paved driveway adds convenience, and major updates—including the HVAC units and roof—are approximately 3–4 years old. If you love historic character paired with spacious living, this De Kalb gem is a must-see!
