4 N Main St, Arcanum, OH 45304

Property Description

New homes can imitate old-house character, but they cannot manufacture nearly 150 years of it. Here, the spacious front porch, stately brick exterior, tall windows, & graceful wood staircase are simply part of the home's history. Inside those brick walls are 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, & more than 2,300 sq ft. The surprise waits out back: an oversized 38x22 detached 3-car garage offering far more space than buyers expect w/ a home of this era. The porch deserves its own moment. Wide enough for real furniture & shaded by mature trees, it serves as an outdoor room overlooking Main Street--a place to start the morning, end the day, or watch Arcanum move around you. Inside, the staircase takes center stage in the foyer. High ceilings, hardwood floors, substantial woodwork, & sunlight from tall windows continue throughout. The living room & separate dining room give life room to unfold while preserving the distinct spaces that make an older home feel special. The kitchen offers cabinetry & counter space along 3 walls, double wall ovens, & room for a breakfast table. A main-floor primary bedroom sits near a full bath, while a half bath is cleverly tucked beneath the stairs. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, a full bath, a landing w/ space for a home office, 2nd-floor laundry, & a back staircase. A covered back patio opens to the privacy-fenced yard, creating a tucked-away space for relaxing, grilling, or gathering. At 836 sq ft, the garage offers room for 3 vehicles, hobbies, & workspace, plus 2 storage rooms for tools & extras. Major updates include the roof (7/2021), 2 furnace/AC systems--one per floor (6/2020), water heater (6/2019), vinyl replacement windows throughout, & front gutters (2022). The result is a home that honors where it has been while making plenty of room for what comes next.
