About this property

For the first time in generations, one of Maryville's historic treasures is ready to welcome its next chapter. Positioned on a prominent corner lot of nearly half an acre in the heart of Downtown Maryville's Historic District, this remarkable Craftsman residence offers a rare opportunity to own a true piece of local history. Built by the Goddard family, one of the area's earliest and most influential families, the home stands as a testament to an era when craftsmanship was valued above convenience and homes were built to last for generations. From the moment you step inside, you'll be captivated by the character that simply cannot be replicated. Original hardwood floors, soaring 10-12 foot ceilings, arched openings, extensive millwork, pocket doors crafted from solid oak, and multiple fireplaces create a warmth and authenticity that modern construction struggles to match. Throughout the home, historic details tell a story of timeless elegance. Stunning stained-glass windows frame the living room fireplace and accent the grand staircase, while the original stained-glass dining room fixture remains a centerpiece more than a century later. Offering over 4,000 square feet of living space, the home provides exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living with 5+ bedrooms, multiple gathering spaces, formal living and dining rooms, a sunroom, bonus room, expansive walk-in attic, and abundant storage throughout. Recent interior painting in select rooms provides a fresh, updated feel while preserving the home's historic charm and architectural integrity. The main level features both primary and guest accommodations, each enhanced by their own fireplace, creating inviting retreats filled with character. Downstairs, the finished walk-out basement offers a completely separate living area with additional bedrooms, a kitchen, full bath, den, storage rooms, and a unique cellar space behind an industrial-style door that could serve as a storm shelter, wine cellar, or private hideaway. Modern improvements have also been thoughtfully incorporated, including a recently updated boiler system, allowing owners to enjoy the best of both historic charm and everyday comfort. Located at the corner of Court Street and Goddard Avenue, this iconic residence is more than a home...it's a landmark. Opportunities like this rarely come available, especially in one of Maryville's most sought-after historic neighborhoods. If you've ever dreamed of owning a home with a story to tell, this is your chance to become part of Maryville's history.
