601 ORCHARD

This “One of a Kind” former one room Schoolhouse formerly known as the "Red School" is now available for your next home. It served as a school into the 1950’s, then remodeled into a home in the late 70’s. This 140+ year old structure has been responsibly maintained and improved over the last 40+ years. The owners have stated "It has a happy personality" and "We are always happy to come home"! The Sunroom serves as the entrance and was the only addition to the original footprint. Visually, it brings a lot of the outside inside. Morning exposure to southeastern sunshine warms the room in winter and fall.
