Have you ever caught yourself saying “Oh, I live in such an old house; it has so much charm” about your home that was built in the 1940s? I’ve been there.

This property that I staged was old. Not 1940s old, or even 1920s old. 1200 Old Shadyside Rd was built in the 1700s.

Go ahead; take a minute to take that in.

1200 Old Shadyside Rd sits on about 20 acres of what can only be described as fairy tale grounds. The property has its own creek, winding stone stairs that bring you to a hilltop vista, and tons of beautiful, lush trees.

In short, it has a lot of character. And at over 4,500 square feet, it has a lot of space, too.

It may have been built in the 1700s, but the interior has been updated so that you aren’t missing any modern amenities. Take a look at this fairytale manor:
