Welcome to this stunning home, built in 1898 for H.M. McLauchlin and designed by the renowned architectural firm Geo. F. Barber & Company, is a cherished part of Paola's history. Known as design No. 24, the same plan was first constructed in Bay Shore, Long Island, NY, adding to its architectural significance. The home boasts gorgeous hardwood floors, tall doorways with handcrafted trim, and a welcoming front porch that invites visitors into a space filled with character and warmth. Stepping inside, you're greeted by a grand staircase and a beautiful stained glass window, rumored to signal the home's connection to the Underground Railroad. The Parlor/Great Room features soaring ceilings and large windows, allowing natural light to flood the space, while the formal dining room adds a stately touch for entertaining. The spacious kitchen, complete with eat-in dining, and a main-floor bedroom with a full bathroom, provides comfort and convenience. Upstairs, the second floor offers four generously sized bedrooms, each with stunning woodwork and large windows, additionally, there is a bonus office or flex room that opens to the upstairs covered deck. The enormous attic presents an opportunity for additional living space or storage. Modern updates, including a newer roof, gutters, air conditioner, furnace, and washer/dryer, ensure the home is well-maintained and comfortable. Outside, a charming patio leads to a detached two-car garage, adding to the overall appeal of this historic yet updated home. With its blend of timeless beauty and modern amenities, this home truly stands as a piece of Paola's rich architectural legacy.
