I love the little guest house! Would even make a neat reading spot/library. The Salsbury-Jones house was built in 1880. It is located on .49 acre in Hamilton, North Carolina. The house features a covered front porch, great double front screen doors, wood floors, crown moulding, wainscoting, crown moulding, french doors and baseboards. It definitely needs some kitchen help and I’d pull those drop ceilings out first. There are brick walkways out back and a cool guest house. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms and 2,634 square feet. $132,975
