Historic, Ornamental Queen Anne Located in a Quiet Community This 1892 Blakesburg beauty was built by and home to M. H. Abernathy, the town's postmaster. The detailed woodwork, a turret, open staircase, multiple fireplaces, front & back parlors, formal dining room, maids stairway, rounded rooms, and a wrap around porch are just a few of the distinct traits of this ornate home. The wrap around porch was totally reconstructed with a steel roof and new composite decking, after the current owners took ownership. They, also, installed a new HVAC system, roof, all new electric and plumbing, new windows and installed tile flooring. This property sits on an acre of ground and includes a pole barn in the back yard. This home is waiting for the next owner to finish restoring it so this piece of history can be treasured for many years to come. You have to see this gem in person to truly appreciate the craftsmanship. Call today to set up your personal viewing.
