Property Description

Own a Piece of Home Town History! Welcome to one of Laurel's most recognizable homes, beautifully transformed by Ben and Erin Napier on HGTV's Home Town (Season 6, Episode 9, "Wraparound Porch"). This iconic Craftsman isn't just a stunning residence—it's a celebrated part of Laurel's story and a rare opportunity to own a home that has inspired viewers across the country. The renovation thoughtfully honored the home's historic character while introducing modern comforts for today's lifestyle. At the heart of the transformation is the breathtaking wraparound porch, restored to its original design and creating the perfect place to enjoy quiet mornings, entertain friends, or experience the welcoming spirit that makes Laurel so special. Inside, timeless craftsmanship meets fresh, open living. Soaring ceilings, original woodwork, stately columns, and classic beadboard walls preserve the home's rich heritage, while an open-concept design seamlessly connects the parlors, formal dining room, and spectacular chef's kitchen. Featuring handcrafted cabinetry, subway tile, concrete countertops, premium appliances, and custom pieces built by Ben Napier himself, every space reflects the signature style that made Home Town a beloved series. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers exceptional flexibility with three bedrooms and two baths on the main level, including a luxurious primary suite and a private mother-in-law suite complete with its own kitchen, living area, full bath, and oversized flex room. Upstairs, you'll find four additional bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a dedicated office, providing room for family, guests, or working from home. While rich in history, this home offers the peace of mind of extensive modern improvements, including updated wiring, insulation, and a new roof. Every detail—from the carefully curated finishes to the beautifully designed wet room—was selected to preserve the home's character while enhancing everyday living. More than a home, this is a landmark. It's an opportunity to own a nationally recognized piece of Laurel history, featured on one of HGTV's most beloved shows, where Southern charm, craftsmanship, and community come together in a way that's truly unforgettable.
