Spacious five bedroom, three bath historic home with original architecture and some modern updates is a must see!
Picture it. It’s 1917. The first jazz records were recorded. President Wilson was sworn in for a second term. Forbes magazine was founded. Several famous people were born including John F Kennedy, Ella Fitzgerald, Desi Arnez and Dean Martin. And your next home was built in Viroqua, WI.
This home was originally owned by Frank McIntosh who founded the local telephone company. The library in Viroqua is named after him. He changed the original outdoor porch to an indoor seating area in the 1930s. The entry porch and the master bedroom porch were both enclosed at a later date.
This historic home is a wonderful combination of the Victorian Periods and later Craftsman style construction. It is unique in that the majority of the home is original. When you set foot inside the front door, an inviting entryway with beautiful original woodwork greets you. It is obvious that this has been a well cared for house. Any and all updates have been done in keeping with the style and history and adds to the charm and character here.
With over 2,600 square feet, there’s plenty of room for everyone and a variety of activities.
On a rainy evening relax by the fireplace with a good book.
Bake up some delicious treats in the updated kitchen.
Set up an arts and crafts room on one of the porches or sit and enjoy a hot cup of coffee.
Host a dinner party in the spacious dining room.
Binge watch your favorite series in the family room. There’s lots of potential here.
The basement is clean and provides storage space. The canning room is still intact with the hand crafted vegetable bins. Genuine, original hardware and chandeliers, archways, columns, original built-ins, and hardwood floors are like the icing on the cake.
