Property Description
SHORT TERM RENTAL APPROVED with proven vacation rental performance and projected gross income exceeding $55,000 annually. Prime location just steps from Piedmont University, creating additional demand for student housing or long-term rental opportunities. Step back in time and experience the timeless allure of this historic gem nestled in the heart of Demorest. Built in 1880 by Edward Hendrickson, this five-bedroom, two full bathrooms and two half-bath residence sits proudly atop Maine Street on a 1.28 acre lot, where its stately charm is enhanced by manicured landscaping, a graceful stone walkway, and a commanding presence that welcomes you home. Inside, old-world elegance meets modern comfort, with rich hardwood floors, and stunning stained-glass accents that cast colorful light throughout the home. The kitchen is both warm and functional, featuring wood accents, and a generous island perfect for gatherings. Natural light pours into the living and dining areas, offering inviting spaces to relax and entertain. Upstairs, real hardwood floors continue the home's classic appeal. Step outside to enjoy serene moments on the front covered porch, sunny back deck, or while tending the garden on the side lot. The property also includes a large lot with a historic barn, originally built in the early 1900s as an air-dry barn for wood used in crafting wooden laundry drying racks. Rich in history and brimming with character, this is more than just a home-it's a story waiting to be continued. Don't miss the chance to own a piece of Demorest's past with all the comforts of today.
