About this home
The Stanly-Bishop House, a Federal-period home, invites you to experience the unique character that only history can provide while enjoying the comforts of today's living. Each room tells a story, with detailed moldings, six-panel doors, & craftsmanship standing the test of time. Contemporary updates include: two new HVAC systems installed in Aug. 2023; freshly sealed lower roof surfaces completed in Oct. 2023; a fresh coat of paint in the 3rd-floor apt. (not incl. in heated square footage due to ceiling height reqs) adds brightness to this flexible space with a separate entrance—perfect for guests, extended living, or income potential; the upstairs primary suite features a tiled zero-entry shower, added in 2022, bringing a touch of luxury & improved accessibility; & comfort-height toilets were installed throughout the home in 2021. Major systems—including fireplaces, HVAC furnaces, & appliances—have been converted to efficient natural gas, including a dual-fuel stove. The kitchen combines the warmth of butcher block & the durability of granite countertops & includes a functional, rolling island. A built-in bookcase in the dining room & a built-in coatrack at the rear entrance offer added charm and convenience. Off-street parking is a rare bonus in this historic district, & the 2nd floor laundry room provides modern practicality. The home is adjacent to train tracks with minimal activity (twice/day) & a soft bell sound rather than a whistle. A structural engineer evaluated the foundation in Dec. 2024 & found that settlement was consistent with the age of the home & noted no recent movement was observed.
