Built in 1892, the McCurry-Hodges house is one of the oldest homes in Hartwell. This home, along with several others on Benson Street, has been listed in the National Registry for Historic Places since 1986. It is situated on a 2 acre lot just one block from Depot Street and downtown Hartwell. This location makes the property perfect for a bed and breakfast, but would also serve as a grand private residence for the right family. Large oak trees, a circular drive, and a wrap-around porch welcome you to the property. The main level has generous common areas with multiple fireplaces, wood flooring, and the high ceilings that you would expect from this classic Victorian home. While much of the interior trim on the main level is original, the kitchen now has granite counters and upgraded appliances. The home has six bedrooms and four baths finished over three levels and almost 6000 square feet. There is a hot tub on the rear patio which is enclosed by a privacy wall. The home also has a detached 2-car garage with an additional storage area, a beautiful gazebo visible from Benson Street, and the wrap-around porch. Don't miss the opportunity to own this important part of Hartwell's history.
