914 CAROLINA Avenue, North Augusta, SC 29841 (MLS# 516694)

Own a piece of North Augusta history! Originally built for Augusta's mayor John Phinizy and named ''The Morning Glory,'' construction of this beautiful turn of the century Victorian home dates back to 1902. With 5 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, this property has been artfully maintained and renovated with updated bathroom, refinished original pine hardwood floors, and brand new 30-year roofs on both the porch and the main structure. Throughout the home, enjoy 12 foot high ceilings and beautiful, large windows in every room. This home is an indoor plant enthusiast's dream. All 9 indoor fireplaces have been resurfaced and re-tiled in the character of historical North Augusta. Perfect for entertaining friends, there is a granite counter wet bar in the main hallway, multiple wine and beer coolers in the butlers pantry, and a built-in wet bar and mini-fridge upstairs. Enjoy the massive front porch in the early evening, and then move to the upstairs porch later at night to enjoy looking out over the lights of downtown Augusta. The kitchen is a chef's kiss with a 5 burner gas range, oversized granite island, industrial sized freezer and refrigerator, double oven, massive sink with overhead sprayer, and overhead pot and pan rack hanging from the ceiling. The kitchen also boasts a gas furnace and floor to ceiling cabinets with soft-close doors. Both full bathrooms have large walk-in showers with a clawfoot tub downstairs. The downstairs bedroom can also be used as an office or playroom, and has its own separate entrance from the large back deck. Upstairs, there are 4 large bedrooms and an extra room currently being used as an office. Journey up one more flight of stairs to find 1,200 ft of floored and insulated attic space. Escape to the backyard without walking through the entire house by using the outdoor stair access from the hall of the second floor. Enjoy the backyard year-round with a green space meant for entertaining from the multi-level deck, hot tub, and large fenced back yard. Keep the party going outside by grilling underneath the covered pergola outside the attached outbuilding with running power. The backyard also contains the original 1902 cookhouse which offers an opportunity for future renovation for storage and additional living space. This home has been loved and expertly cared for over the last few decades. Between location, history, functionality, and opportunity, this home has everything you could want, and more!
