NEW PICTURES AND FLOOR PLAN added! Public tour/open house (all community members welcome-complimentary Mom & Pop's Pizza will be served) on Sat Jan 10 from 11-2. This one is a true Chester gem my friends. When I was a little girl, I was in awe of this mansion. I'd go to the Chester Public Library right across the street and read Gone with the Wind, and then come out and see this big mansion. I dreamed a lot back then! I didn't know much about real estate then - I have learned that a real Southern Plantation home was different, but in my 10 year old mind, it was something I could still dream about. Now my dream has come full circle. Come and see this beautiful circa 1840 classic for yourself. This one could be a beautiful bed/breakfast, Vrbo, Wedding destination...the possibilities are endless. There is a 4 car garage, a BBQ house, beautiful balconies and wrap around porch. 5 bedrooms with 3 full, 2 1/2 bathrooms, full finished basement with living quarters...just too much to write here. There is an additional 1823 square foot home (102 & 102A Mullins Rd) in the rear (former servants quarters) now rented as a duplex. Currently bringing in $1500 a month. That house will NOT be included in the open house/tour on the 10th. Qualified buyers with preapproval letter or proof of funds can arrange a private tour of that duplex by calling the list agent. It's being sold AS-IS and Knox College is the benefactor for the gift from the Mullins family. Watch for the video! It's a true delight.
