Situated in one of Tryon's loveliest neighborhoods and within walking distance to downtown. The wrap-around porch beckons you, handsome wood floors underfoot,complemented by beadboard finishes & moldings that speak to the craftsmanship of days gone by. Imagine the wonderful conversations that have taken place in front of the three Rumford fireplaces. This home is not merely a structure, but a living, breathing entity that has witnessed the ebb and flow of life. Each nook and cranny holds whispers of the past, inviting you to uncover the rich tapestry of its history and make it your own. This home would also make a wonderful bed and breakfast.
