Property Description

Opportunities like this rarely exist within the City of Jefferson. Set on four acres inside the city limits and believed to be part of the original Elder family homestead, this exceptional property offers a blend of history, privacy, and possibility that is nearly impossible to replicate today. A circular drive winds through a grove of mature pecan trees, leading to a classic traditional home designed for relaxed Southern living. Expansive porches wrap the home, including a screened section that connects directly to the rear deck, creating an easy transition between indoor and outdoor spaces for entertaining or quiet evenings enjoying the property. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully renovated to honor its character while elevating it for modern living. Solid hardwood flooring runs throughout, lighting and finishes have been refreshed, and the layout has been opened for better flow and functionality. The kitchen is both beautiful and highly functional, featuring custom solid wood cabinetry, solid surface countertops, farm sink, large island with built-in microwave and warming drawer, gas range with additional baking drawer, pot filler, and a breakfast area with accordion window that opens directly to the screened porch bar - a rare feature that makes entertaining effortless. The primary suite is generously sized, offering a soaking tub, separate shower, expanded closet, and its own private laundry for everyday convenience. One secondary bedroom includes a private bath, while two others share a spacious double-vanity bathroom. Multiple living spaces provide flexibility for both daily living and entertaining, including a large family room, formal living room with fireplace, and a dining room sized for gatherings of twelve or more. The home features three separate laundry areas, providing exceptional functionality for a property of this size - including the private primary suite laundry, a main household laundry, and an additional laundry within the carriage house. The home has also been thoughtfully planned for future outdoor living, including space positioned for a pool. Convenient access is already in place, with a main-level door leading directly to a beautifully renovated bathroom, while the garage area on the basement level includes an additional half bath - an ideal setup for future pool use, outdoor entertaining, or workshop functionality. Major system improvements completed in 2023 include four new HVAC systems, full encapsulation of the basement, garage, and crawl space, commercial-grade water mitigation pump, and replacement of the primary plumbing line - providing peace of mind rarely found in homes with this level of character. The property also includes a beautifully finished carriage house with its own private entrance, bedroom, full bath, living and dining space, full kitchen, washer and dryer, and full laundry capability. Designed with ADA considerations in mind, it's ideal for multigenerational living, guest accommodations, or income-producing rental use. Beyond the home itself, the land opens the door to possibilities. With city sewer and natural gas access, the property may offer future subdivision or expansion potential (subject to approvals). Whether envisioned as a family compound, legacy property, income-producing investment, or simply a private residence with room to breathe, the setting allows for flexibility that is increasingly rare. Located within walking distance to Jefferson City Schools, the Public Library, downtown shops and restaurants, and Jefferson City Lake just behind the property, the home offers the unique balance of acreage, history, and walkable convenience. With mature trees, meaningful history, a secondary residence, and room for the future, this is more than a home - it's an opportunity to own a piece of Jefferson's story while creating your own.
