Beautiful historical Norwood-Shockley home, located in the heart of downtown Snow Hill. Town center is 2 blocks away, making this the ideal location to enjoy town events, parks, shops and the river. The property features beautiful gardens with mature landscaping, including a massive southern magnolia shading the all window sun room. In the spring, the three ornamental fruit trees burst to life with pink blooms, iris, daffodil hyacinth and lilies follow shortly after. In the summer azaleas of 7 different types and the wisteria bloom. The wisteria has just blanketed the pergola, so spring should bring purple flowers draped over the most lovely outside space. Imagine dinners under the wisteria on summer evenings! Lilac and honeysuckle, as well as hibiscus, hydrangeas, prickly pear, holly and many more keep the gardens beautiful year round. There is a small pond where the frogs "meep" during the summer nights, and in the spring water irises bloom. Inside the home, 100 year old restored hardwood floors are a stunning addition to the tall ceilings and thick crown molding. From the bright glass paneled front door, you are greeted by a beautiful hardwood staircase which adds to the character this home has, in surplus. In the dining room there is a beautiful stained glass custom built in china cabinet. The sun room features fully openable floor to ceiling windows throughout, canopied by the magnolia, it is a favorite spot in the home by all who enjoy it. Gas fireplace in the living room is not only a centerpiece, but easy and functional for colder winter months, no mess to clean up after. You can turn it on and off with a remote. The downstairs bedroom makes a great private guestroom or a beautiful home office space, with views of the back gardens. Upstairs bedrooms are generously sized and carpeted, while the hardwood floors continue in the hallway. A smaller bedroom, or upstairs office space is located on the second floor. Two full baths, linen closet, built in bookshelf and 3 bedrooms make the most of the second floor. The detached garage is waiting for someone with hobby interests to make it their own space, it is equipped with heat for the winter, so you don't need to put your hobby on hold when it gets cold.
