Inside the home
This 1899 yellow brick Victorian in the Banfield area of Paris has been thoughtfully renovated without stripping out what makes it worth buying — the original plaster crown moulding, ceiling medallions, curved staircase, and cast iron fireplace surrounds are all still here. The main floor does the heavy lifting. The primary bedroom and its ensuite (heated marble floors, soaker tub, glass shower) are genuinely high-end. The kitchen is properly updated with granite, a gas range, and a centre island. A cedar-ceiling sunroom addition at the rear opens to a private flagstone patio with a pergola. Upstairs, the three bedrooms are functional but more basic — sloped ceilings and simpler finishes. The 1,223 sq ft unfinished basement under the 2007 addition is the biggest untapped asset here, with full ceiling height and real expansion potential.
