Welcome to Ida Rebecca--a charming 1830 cottage rich in history, once home to Pulitzer Prize-winning author Russell Baker and his beloved grandmother, for whom the home is named. Nestled along a quiet country road, this enchanting property is surrounded by lush perennial gardens, mature trees, and a romantic pergola, offering a peaceful and private retreat.
Inside, the home blends period charm with modern comfort. A large, renovated country kitchen anchors the main level, while two bedrooms and 1.5 baths offer cozy, functional living. Custom mural in Living Room, wood floors, historic details, and two fireplaces--including one in the finished lower-level family room--create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Enjoy morning coffee on the wide front porch and unwind in the screened back porch overlooking the gardens.
A rare opportunity to own a beautifully preserved piece of literary history in a truly magical setting.
