Historical preservation at its finest: Ashland circa 1840. Ashland is on the National Register of Historic Places, once part of an 1100 acre plantation expanding along the banks of the Chowan River. With its original brick walkway, this Greek Revival home welcomes you. A central hall with heart of pine floors leads to a central staircase, as well as a service staircase at the back. From the original tin roofing to the woodwork and mantels throughout the house, careful skill and restoration brought this home back to life. With the orignial floorplan in place, rooms have transitioned over the years for better funcitonality. 3 full bedrooms are found upstairs and share 2 baths. Downstairs two front parlors, a powder room/laundry room, kitchen and sunroom completes the space.
This historic home sits on 8 acres in Bertie County, North Carolina, but the Ashland property does not end there. A custom barn includes overhangs and storage space with interior walls made from reclaimed Cypress. Take a dip in the pool or lounge in the pool house during the summer. This home is built among wooded acreage in a rural location with panoramic views of agriculture from every window. A rare property that far exceeds other historic homes in the area!
