The Watson House, built in 1868, predates the chartering of the town of Glade Spring itself... a quiet reminder that this property has stood here longer than the community that grew up around it.Set well back from the road on nearly a full acre, the setting is one of its strongest attributes. Mature trees, multiple outbuildings, and a gently sloping yard give it a sense of space and privacy that is increasingly difficult to find within town limits.The exterior reflects a restrained Victorian influence, defined by a simple form, a new metal roof, and a two-story porch that overlooks what was once a small but active railroad town.Stepping through the original front door, you are immediately met by a striking Victorian staircase... a defining feature that anchors the interior. Throughout much of the home, the original woodwork remains intact and unpainted, preserving a level of authenticity that is increasingly rare.The first floor offers a practical and well-considered layout. A main-level suite includes an original fireplace, a fully updated bathroom, and an attached laundry area. Across the hall, the living room is centered around a bay window that brings in consistent natural light. The dining room maintains its intended scale and function, providing a space that still feels appropriate for gathering with a gas fireplace for warmth and ambiance. Toward the rear of the home, the kitchen is generously sized and functions as a true eat-in space, followed by an additional full bath down the hall. Upstairs, two well-proportioned bedrooms retain their original flooring, while a third room with a bay window offers flexibility as a den, office, playroom, or extension of a bedroom.This is a house that has endured for over 150 years... and has been thoughtfully maintained along the way. With recently updated heating and air systems, it is well-positioned for continued use without compromising its historic character.The home is being offered fully furnished with antiques, all
