Realtor Comments
This stately home on North Vermilion is known as The Acton House and was built in 1890. As you enter through the original door to the house, you will be greeted with an amazing foyer and the original staircase that has been restored. In 2017, the kitchen was taken down to the studs and tastefully updated with new drywall, recessed lighting, a tile backsplash, and Kraft-Maid Cherry cabinets. There are replacement windows found throughout most of the house. The shingles on the home were replaced in 2019, and the rubber portion in 2020. The water heater was also replaced in 2020. On the main floor, you will find a small mother-in-law suite. Upstairs, there are 2 bedrooms, a playroom that could be used as a bedroom, but it does not have a closet, and another kitchen that could easily be converted back into a bedroom. Do not miss this one-of-a-kind home!
