Among one of the oldest houses in the city, the Wills House was built between 1809 and 1812 by Captain Charles Wills, a prominent merchant who once owned the entire block. In its long history this Church Hill treasure has seen many alterations -- not the least of them a sensitive restoration -- but it still retains a remarkable amount of original fabric, including heart pine floors, an elegant staircase and rippled window panes that have seen the light of three centuries. The two bedrooms on the second floor each have an en-suite bath while on the first floor are a living room, dining room, custom kitchen, office and breakfast room. An early kitchen and accessory room in the basement await the next owner's imaginative use. Sitting well above street level, the front facade is further enhanced by a long porch and its Chinese Chippendale railing. One of the largest on the Hill, the fenced rear garden with its meandering paths and mature trees and plantings offers a true urban oasis. Two decks, an outdoor fireplace and sitting areas only add to the charm. PHOTOS COMING!
