Property Description
This historic brick beauty, built in 1887, stands tall and proud, offering modern updates and conveniences without sacrificing the craftsmanship characteristic of the time period. Dubbed “The Prager House” this exquisite mansion was the first of its kind in historic Ft. Scott. This architectural gem showcases the perfect blend of timeless elegance and modern comfort. As you step through the grand entrance, you are greeted by charm and character galore. The meticulously preserved features throughout the house transport you to a bygone era - beautiful hardwood floors, curved walls, massive pocket doors, ornate fireplaces, decorative fixtures, grand woodwork, an elaborate staircase, towering ceilings, and many more intricate details large and small. The house boasts a thoughtfully designed floor plan offering spacious rooms that seamlessly combine old-world charm with current-day amenities. Between the large living areas inside the home and multiple porches outside, there is ample room for both relaxation and entertainment. With over 3,100 finished square feet, there is no shortage of space, comfort, and privacy for family and guests.
The current owners have made many tasteful updates, reminiscent of the late 1800's. Cosmetically, they've refurbished a number of original features and re-integrated them throughout. Fresh paint has been applied in the entirety of the exterior and interior, floors have been refinished, and 19th century fixtures have been incorporated. Mechanically, there have been many recent upgrades, including a newer roof, newer heat and air units, a new hot water heater, and updated electrical and plumbing. An asbestos abatement was completed, and work was done on the foundation to ensure the basement stays dry. The detached garage and unfinished basement allocate plenty of room for storage, and the fenced-in backyard provides privacy and convenience. Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of history where past meets present in perfect harmony.
