Property Description
Greystone Manor… the Crown Jewel of Perry can be yours! Own an iconic piece of Perry history today. This circa 1904 Stone Victorian home is a noted landmark located in the heart of the downtown Perry's Historic District directly across the street from the circa 1870 First Methodist Church. Enjoy the appealing sounds of church bells and melodies throughout the day and be within walking distance of downtown eateries, shopping, and parks. This iconic Victorian has it all…over 1300 sq. ft. of wrap-around porches with two porticoes and plenty of room for a porch swing and wicker seating arrangements, multi-story bay windows, period architecture, multi-gabled roof, 9 fireplaces (2 with mantels removed), 10' ceilings, a massive turret with spire and observation tower, but she needs TLC to bring her back to her former glory. The property features 8 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, 9 fireplaces, and is located on a large city corner lot. Sun filled turret rooms on each floor…perfect for a cozy sitting room, reading nook, home office, music room…you decide. This neglected, graceful beauty is in desperate need of someone preservation minded with a love of old homes and their unique histories. With a sensitivity for period sympathetic renovations and a vision to see what she could be if restored to her former 1900's-era glory, you could complete the underway mid-progress restoration efforts and return this stately home to being a grand residence in town. Due to present condition, must be accompanied to view this property. On the first floor, guests are welcomed into the home by an expansive 12' wide entry foyer/central hall with its original, hand-crafted grand staircase that will simply take your breath away. Add a spectacular chandelier and wow your visitors speechless. Features such as original hardwood floors, authentic period details, transom widows etc. abound. The hall is bookended by matching living rooms/parlors complete with fireplaces and bay windows. Use one as your living room and the other as an office, library or media room. In addition to these rooms, there is a separate dining room, kitchen (in need of complete renovation), and adjoining family room. This floor also has a room with fireplace, bay window, and separate bath…perfect for a guestroom or ground-floor bedroom. The winding staircase leads to the 2nd floor which boats 4 spacious bedrooms separated by the wide second floor landing with a full-length window view of the church bell tower across the street. Each room features large windows and has its own fireplace. One room has a bay window, and another has its own private bath underway. A spiral staircase leads to the unfinished third floor where you will find three bedrooms, a shared full bath, access to the attic…and of course the Turret…a magical spot with an unparalleled view thanks to five large, breezy windows providing a spectacular SE view of the city. This Grand Lady sits on a corner lot with two access entries and plenty of space for large award-winning flower gardens. Are you ready to complete her transformation and be her next entrusted steward?
