From the Zillow listing:
:Steeped in history and timeless character, this remarkable property traces its roots back to 1774, when the original structure—known as The Glebe House—was first constructed. A significant addition in 1890 expanded the home to over 4,000 square feet, blending early American charm with Victorian-era detail. A cobblestone walkway, lined with mature American boxwoods dating back to the 1890s, sets the tone as you approach. Inside, the home showcases intricate woodwork, rich flooring, and period mantels that reflect its historic significance while maintaining warmth and livability. The layout is currently configured for use as the Raleigh Parish Glebe Bed & Breakfast, with each bedroom offering its own private full bath, including several with classic clawfoot tubs. Major system updates have been completed, including electrical, plumbing, dual-zone HVAC, and oil radiant heat. The kitchen has been thoughtfully renovated within the past five years, offering a balance of modern convenience and historic charm. The partial basement features brick flooring and a large fireplace, adding even more character to the home’s unique spaces. The property continues to impress outdoors with a restored 1920s Sears & Roebuck barn, measuring approximately 40×80, now equipped with lighting, updated windows, loft space, two bathrooms, three mini-split systems, and a pellet stove—making it ideal for events, workshops, or flexible use. A separate guest house has been fully gutted and presents an excellent opportunity for a future ADU or private guest space. The kitchen is ready for renovation, allowing the next owner to bring their vision to life. A new mini-split system was installed approximately four years ago, along with an additional unit in the primary suite, all professionally installed and regularly serviced.
