Own one of Lead's historic Craftsman style homes built in 1915 for the Blackstone family. Situated on Main Street it has served as a family home to many of Lead's early prominent and famous residents, twice as a successful BandB, a long term rental, and most recently as a vacation rental. The two story home features 4 bedrooms (plus bonus room that can be used as overflow bedroom), 3 baths, a large living room that once held a baby grand piano, dining room with original built-ins and pocket doors, kitchen with a butler's pass through, a beautiful sideboard, a larder (10x16), a boudoir, two additional sitting areas, many closets, an oversized single car garage, and a basement with a soapstone sink, original coal chute, and abundant storage. The home features original finely crafted oak and fir floors, oak staircase, pocket doors, five panel doors, trim and box-beams; French doors, beveled glass in front door and sidelights, brass hardware, fireplace, clawfoot tubs, Jacuzzi tub, spacious front porch with swing, a patio area, and an upper deck. Most all of the beautiful wood has never been painted. Further research indicated that the back area of the home, built in the late 1800's, once served as a miner's cabin and maid quarters. The easily maintained yard has crab apple and pine trees, rose & lilac bushes, and fragrant flowers. Deer often visit. Front seat to any parades.
