A TRUE UNRESTRICTED DREAM come true for the person who is searching for a home that has a "story to tell". A home that has stood solid for almost 2 centuries. One that has character and charm that can't be found in modern cookie-cutter houses. Nestled away on a lovely, tree-lined 2.65 acres and just a stone's throw away from the Berkeley/Jefferson County line, this gorgeous German-style farmhouse definitely has seen its share of history and has ample stories to tell! The main portion of the home was built in 1828 and the addition was added in 1900, you'll love the mix of old-world charm and modern amenities. Gorgeous hardwood floors, black walnut beams, and wood-burning fireplace with a chestnut mantel, and built-in bookcases add special touches to the beauty and charm. The upper floor features 3 large bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The main level offers a living room, a large kitchen with an attached dining area, a half bathroom, and laundry room with a Whirlpool washer and dryer that conveys. The basement is partially finished and features a large fireplace that was used as part of the home's Summer kitchen. While inside, see if you can find the secret door in the family room and where it leads you. Outside, you'll enjoy relaxing on the front porch or entertaining family and friends on the large back deck. Conveniently located to several commuter routes, Shepherd University, and many other amenities yet still secluded enough to feel "away from it all"...truly the best of both worlds! Don't let a chance to own such a stunning home pass you by. Come look around and take in all of the charm that 132 Marlene Avenue has to offer!!
