Clark Street home near downtown Clarksdale
Description
Timeless, 3 bed 2.5 bath home and guest house located in the historic area of Clark Street near downtown Clarksdale. This remarkable two story home was built in 1910 amongst the other great houses of its time that sets the Clark Street neighborhood apart and gives it a unique old-world-charm of its own.
This classic property boasts a grand entrance with 10 ft ceilings, original hard wood floors, and a master staircase that leads to the upstairs bedrooms. Beyond the entrance you will find a formal dining room, formal living room, wet bar, and 1/2 bath that are also originals. There is also a small office space on the ground level that could be used for multiple purposes.
Located in the back of the house beyond the dining room are the den and kitchen that were added by the previous owners. The den has vaulted ceilings and flows brilliantly with brick floors into the kitchen. The kitchen was renovated in 2008 with custom cabinets, granite countertops, and Jenn Air Oiled Bronze appliances. A spiral staircase separates the den and kitchen and serves as another entry to the upstairs bedrooms.
Just when you think there cannot be more, French doors lead you from the den to a remarkable and spacious screen porch that runs the width of the house and has the same soaring ceilings. This screen porch would be a great place to spend your evenings and creates an atmosphere of its own apart from the rest of the house. From the porch, the backyard opens up to a rolling hill with a guest house and the long-flowing Mill Creek that runs behind it all!
Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms with the large master suite having his/hers closets. The master bath was renovated in 2023 with a marble vanity, double sinks, ceramic tile floors, and a standalone bathtub with its own t.v.! The upstairs guest bathroom was renovated in 2017 with natural stone, tile, and custom flooring.
The guest house located behind the property is a 1 bedroom, 1 full bath with a kitchen, living room, and laundry room. This bonus space has great potential as an Airbnb that would bring income to the new owners for years to come. Being walking distance from the downtown blues scene is a must for most travelers and this house is only a short stroll away.
With its historic style and amazing layout, 249 Clark Street is a rare find in one of the oldest and most popular neighborhoods in Clarksdale. The sidewalk leads you to downtown but along the way you will pass historic homes and landmarks that give you the feels of a time gone by. Don’t miss the rare opportunity to make this classic property your own!
