Custom designed and lovingly cared for by its original owners, this one-of-a-kind home invites you in with a sense of warmth, intention, and enduring quality rarely found today. From the distinctive ironwork sourced in New Orleans to the slate and tin roof and solid double-layer concrete and cinderblock construction, every detail reflects thoughtful planning and pride of ownership. Inside, the scale of the living spaces unfolds beautifully -- a welcoming living room with wood-burning fireplace for quiet evenings or lively gatherings, a formal dining room with
built-in storage ready to host holiday traditions, and a spacious kitchen with adjoining breakfast area that naturally becomes the heart of daily life. Just beyond, a cozy den with a gas log fireplace offers the perfect place to unwind, while the screened porch with slate floor provides a
breezy connection to the private side and rear yard. Upstairs, four comfortable bedrooms include a primary suite with three closets, creating a true retreat at the end of the day. The walk-out basement expands the possibilities with a large family room, additional den, fifth bedroom or ideal home office, and a fourth full bath -- space that easily adapts to changing needs. The generator adds peace of mind, while the home's easy flow makes both everyday
living and large gatherings feel effortless. Sidewalk-lined streets invite evening strolls to Downtown Salem, nearby restaurants, and Roanoke College, offering a walkable lifestyle that is as special as the home itself. Deceptively spacious and rich in character, this is a rare opportunity to own a home where craftsmanship, comfort, and scale come together in a way that is both timeless and unforgettable.
