Property Description

COMING SOON -ACTIVE ON FRIDAY Jan 2. Public tour/open house (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 Southern Plantation mansion. I dreamed a lot back then! Now my dream has come full circle. Come and see this beautiful classic for yourself. This one could be a beautiful bed/breakfast, Vrbo, Wedding destination...the possibilities are endless. More remarks and pictures/video are coming. There is a 4 car garage, a BBQ house, beautiful balconies and wrap around porch. 5 bedrooms with 3.5 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. Watch for the video! It's a true delight.
