Location is everything! Walk to everything in the newly revived downtown Fountain Inn. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Fountain Inn History. The FW Welborn House, lovingly referred to as “the eyebrow house” by the Fountain Inn community, was built by FW Welborn in 1914 and is on The National Register of Historic Places. You’re certain to be wow’d as you enter the front door and are greeted by the towering tripartite windows, 11’ tall ceilings, and abundance of natural light. This 4 bed 3 bath house was brought back to life and underwent a major renovation/restoration in 2022. Careful consideration was spent to modernize the function while preserving the historic charm of the early 1900’s. The best part is!...you just get to move in and ENJOY! Renovations included converting the attic to a 4th bedroom, 3rd full bathroom, and upstairs living space. New architectural roof, Both HVAC units and all duct work were replaced. Plumbing was replaced. Foundation and structural support were beefed up and repaired. New insulation in crawlspace. Existing 2 bathrooms were renovated. Front porch was rebuilt. All new high end light fixtures throughout. New high end door hardware throughout. Original hardwood floors were sanded and refinished. New paint throughout. New rear entry door. Outdoor renovations included a complete revision of the front elevation by removing trees, adding a circular “Hampton’s” driveway, landscaping, and sod. The backyard had several trees removed and was sodded as well. The work has been done and this piece of history is preserved for the next 100 years. It’s not often a rare gem like this becomes available. Welcome to the downtown Fountain Inn community! Welcome home.
