Property Description
Occassionally, a property comes along that represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity; but the the historic Howe House and Farmstead is a once-in-several- generations opportunity! Offered for sale is a remarkable piece of Emporia history. One of the County's oldest homes, the Howe House is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and offers a rare opportunity to own a property with both historic significance and exceptional potential. This property includes the historic home, a shed, a barn (circa 1900), and more than 17 acres of land, all within the City of Emporia. A circa 1973 addition to the home provides modern conveniences while also creating a comfortable and relaxing family room on the main level. The tag on the outdoor ac unit shows it was manufactured in 2024, so it is nearly new. Come experience the historic charm and character of this unique home, explore the expansive acreage, and imagine the possibilities as the remarkable property begins its next chapter.
