Gracious Home In Historic District

The Skinner-Chappel house was built in 1890 for local
grocer, JM Skinner.  Every inch of the
house house has been meticulously restored with incredible attention to detail
by the current owners who’ve delighted in 30 happy years in their treasure of a
home. A traditional foyer is flanked by spacious living and formal dining
rooms.  An attractive bright, cheerful
sunroom across the rear of the house was an addition - and currently serves as
the home’s primary living space.  Large
windows overlook the lovely backyard - which offers a surprising feel of
privacy for an ’’in town’’ lot. 3 large bedrooms and 2 full baths are on the
2nd floor, and the 3rd floor has been finished into a wonderful rec room and
loft space.  This is one of the few homes
in Edenton with full double tier porches - and porches are a lifestyle in this quaint
southern town! A smokehouse in the backyard pre-dates the home, and a recently
rebuilt 2 car detached garage provides convenience.  This home is a wonderful combination of
historic charm with modern updates - really, the best of both worlds! Stunning
wood floors, lovely woodwork, an abundance of natural light and extraordinarily
spacious rooms are highlights! Enjoy strolling downtown to shops and
restaurants from this convenient location in the heart of Edenton’s famed
historic district.  Come join us in the
’’Prettiest Little Town in the South!’’
