Details

In 1891, Benjamin Harrison was President, Columbia was booming—and this beautifully restored 4-bed, 2-bath treasure was brand new. Today, 135 years later, it’s “new” all over again thanks to a top-tier professional renovation that preserved every ounce of historic charm while updating everything you actually want updated. Step inside through the heart of the home—the spacious dining room (or living room, depending on your vibe). Fresh paint, refinished original pine floors, a working transom window, crisp white trim, and those wonderfully tall ceilings greet you with an instant welcome home. To your right, the completely reimagined kitchen/living area shines with quartz countertops, contrasting cabinetry, 42" shaker cabinets with crown molding, open shelving, stainless appliances, recessed and pendant lighting, and sliding doors that lead to a covered carport—also perfect as an outdoor dining or entertaining space. The main-floor bedroom sits quietly at the rear of the home, just steps from the laundry and a beautifully designed bathroom featuring custom tile and a corner shower. A brand-new mudroom gives you the ideal spot to kick off muddy boots or toss play-clothes straight into the main-floor laundry after enjoying your massive, fully fenced yard. The yard also provides access to the garage/workshop—great for hobbies, storage, or projects. A centrally located staircase leads to the upper level where three generously sized bedrooms (yes—three!) and oversized walk-in closets offer room to grow, live, and store all the things. The upstairs primary wows with vaulted and beamed ceilings, exposed brick, a walk-in closet, and newly stained original wood floors in a warm java tone. The second-floor bath is pure vintage luxury with a clawfoot soaking tub and separate shower. A full four-bedroom home with space to live, work, create, and relax in the heart of Columbia, just a stone's throw from downtown festivals, shopping and dining. A historic home with modern comfort, timeless character, and a smart new layout—this is the best of 1891 and 2026 all under one roof. New upgrades include: New siding, Roof, soffit, gutters, fascia and 3/4 of fencing. Garage has been painted. Privacy fence has been added to the carport. Front yard landscaping. Basement was waterproofed by B-dry and a sump pump was added. New Basement exterior hatch door.
