    Rich architectural characterAntique detailsModern tile backsplashFlexible layoutTwo generous bedroomsSoaring ceilingsRemodeled kitchen
    Discover 1203 Story Street, a beautifully preserved historic home with walkable access to Boone's beloved shops, restaurants, schools, and parks in the heart of downtown. Built c. 1880, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home blends timeless craftsmanship with thoughtful updates across more than 1,600 sq. ft. of living space. Sunlight pours through tall windows into rooms featuring soaring ceilings, antique details, and rich architectural character. The flexible layout lends itself to a variety of uses. The upper level features two generous bedrooms and a full bath, while the main floor includes two additional bedrooms—one ideal for a library or media room—a spacious full bath with laundry, and an elegant dressing area. The remodeled kitchen impresses with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a modern tile backsplash. A once-famous stained glass window facing Story Street—long recognized as a signature feature of this home—was removed by a previous owner, but the opening remains ready for a new installation that could restore the property's former historic distinction. Move-in ready and rich with potential, this is a rare chance to own a piece of Boone's heritage. Schedule your private showing today and experience the charm of 1203 Story Street for yourself.
