Nestled within the acclaimed Anchorage School District, a thoughtfully restored residence is a testament to Anchorage's heritage. According to Samuel W. Thomas' book ''The Village of Anchorage'', the homestead that was built in 1879 started as a two-story, three-bay frame house with a hipped roof. Later, in 1929, it was expanded with a third-floor addition based on plans by Nevin & Morgan. Today, this Anchorage Historic Preservation landmark known as the Bedinger House welcomes you with wrought iron gates and stone columns. Within a serene 1.23 acre lot, framed by mature trees and landscaping, stands a home embodying true Anchorage architectural character. Inside, you'll find a haven of understated elegance and comfort, where seven fireplaces, pocket doors, built-ins, nooks, alcoves, balconies, and antique fixtures adorn every room. Spacious formal and informal rooms, a banquet-sized dining room, great ceiling heights and windows give a perfect setting for any type of activity or gathering. A screened in porch with tall ceilings and four sets of French doors that open into the main living spaces invites you to unwind amidst nature's beauty and offers a seamless transition to indoor-outdoor living. Relish the renovated kitchen's warmth, featuring a new center island with soft close drawers, and two built-in but hidden spice racks, a brand-new gas cooktop and a meticulously restored rail car flooring Butcherblock counter by Southern Vintage Louisville reclaimed wood. A wall of windows in the breakfast area overlooks the tranquil wooded lot and inviting pool. A primary suite with kitchenette and private access to the sideyard completes the first floor.
