Edgar Allan Poe House

An Absolute Gem, This 1906 Fully Restored and Historically Registered Dutch Colonial Home is a Must See. 

Step back in time and relish in this homes pristine craftmanship. Majestically hand-carved stairwell, crown moldings and built-in cabinets, a butlers pantry and intricately hand painted wall design of the grand foyer, three wood burning fireplaces, french doors leading out to the wrap around front porch and clawfoot tub in main floor bath. Beautiful medallion windows in the kitchen stream sunlight into the large kitchen space. A modern touch include storm panels in every window which provide excellent insulation and keep the electric bill down year round. Enjoy your vast backyard with mature trees for shade which includes a rock terrace and water feature perfect for al fresco dining and entertaining all backing up to city-owned wooded property. Take a short walk into the ever-expanding downtown Lenoir for shopping, dining, spas and medical facilities. Only 30 min from Boone.
