The Boone-Jones House was built around 1880 and is a two-story, gable-and-wing, Queen Anne-style home. The home sits on Main Street and is noted as a contributing structure in the Winton Historic District, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. There are three bedrooms and two full baths, a living room, dining room, laundry/mud room, along with a screened side porch, a wrap-around front porch and an upstairs balcony. Most of the historical elements are still present in the home, such as beautiful wood detail, original wood floors, mantles, etc. The home has baseboard heat and window unit a/c. The homesite runs all the way from West Main Street, along West Richard Street and the rear of the property runs along King Street. The property then adjoins Winton Baptist Church, for a total of about 0.5 acres. There are several fruiting trees/shrubs and a storage building in the rear yard. The home seems solid and has so much potential. A little paint and elbow grease will make her into a beautiful showplace again. Winton is the county seat for Hertford County, and it sits on the Chowan River. The home is only minutes to the Hertford County Courthouse and county offices, about a 10 minute drive to Murfreesboro or Ahoskie, and about 30 minutes to Suffolk, VA.
