Open Houses
They simply don't build them like this anymore. This classic brick home in the heart of Knox offers more than 3,100 square feet of living space filled with craftsmanship and character. Step inside to 9-foot ceilings, oak hardwood flooring throughout much of the main level, 8-inch baseboards, original woodwork and doors, and a spacious living room anchored by a fireplace and original built-in cabinetry. The formal dining room leads into the kitchen with newer appliances, while the adjoining sunroom provides another light-filled space to enjoy. The main level offers two bedrooms, including a spacious primary with a walk-in closet, along with the full bathroom. Upstairs you'll find two additional bedrooms, a half bath, generous closet space and plenty of additional room to spread out. Outside, enjoy the screened front porch, mature landscaping, above-ground pool with thoughtfully designed deck, detached garage and 12x16 shed built in 2024. And while this home showcases its 1920s character, an important improvement has already been made overhead--a 50-year steel roof installed in 2019. The unfinished basement provides even more storage and utility space. With 4 bedrooms, 3,115 finished square feet, classic brick construction and original architectural details throughout, 205 S Main offers a combination of space, character and thoughtful improvements that's increasingly difficult to find.
