Property Description
Live in one of the best neighborhoods in Covington. This home was built circa 1898 by an heir of the Wallace family and blends Queen Anne and Colonial Revival styles with Victorian touches; the fluted square columns on the porch are more classical in style. Entering the home, you're immediately impressed by the magnificent workmanship, beautiful woodwork, pocket doors, stained glass windows, and Rookwood fireplaces. This home offers four bedrooms,1 ½ bathrooms. One bedroom is currently used as a walk-in closet. The 3rd floor was the original maids' quarters. The home has been lovingly cared for and maintained by the same owner for 42 years. The home also benefits from important updates, including Anderson replacement windows, a 200-amp electrical panel, copper box gutters and downspouts, and a recently roofed and painted exterior.
