Inside the home
This is a genuine 1861 brick home on a two-thirds-acre lot in Paris — a combination that does not come up often. The original structure has tall ceilings, wide hardwood floors, crown moulding, and deep-silled windows that reflect its age in the best way. A later addition houses the kitchen, a flexible multi-room space currently used as a home clinic, and a combined bath and laundry room. The kitchen is the clearest area needing work — 1990s pine cabinets and tile counters that are functional but well behind current standards. The rest of the home is a mix of well-maintained original character and mid-range updates from the 2000s. The metal roof (2019) and furnace (2015) are meaningful capital items already done. Out back, the inground pool has a new liner and floor from 2021, and the large fenced yard is screened by a mature cedar hedge. The detached barn-roof garage adds workshop or storage potential on a lot this size.
