Description
Welcome to The Dorsey House — a truly exceptional opportunity to own a fully restored piece of Opelika history in the heart of the Historic District. Originally built in 1900 and meticulously renovated from top to bottom within the last five years, this 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home offers approximately 2, 982 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space where historic charm and modern luxury come together seamlessly. Extensive renovations include structural repairs, updated electrical, plumbing, gas lines, HVAC systems, and a full interior transformation designed to preserve the character of the home while elevating it for modern living. Rich hardwood floors, stunning fireplaces, intricate trim work, coffered ceilings, and oversized windows showcase the timeless craftsmanship rarely found in homes today, while the beautifully renovated kitchen and bathrooms provide stylish, functional updates throughout. Currently operating as a successful Airbnb property, The Dorsey House offers flexibility as a primary residence, luxury short-term rental, or investment opportunity. Due to active guest occupancy, showings must be scheduled on days when guests are not present. The seller is offering an $8, 000 credit that buyers may use toward closing costs, repairs, prepaids, or other allowable fees, adding even more value and flexibility for purchasers. Furniture is not included in the sale but may be purchased separately. Located just moments from downtown Opelika’s dining, shopping, entertainment, and community events, The Dorsey House is a rare blend of historic elegance, extensive modernization, and investment potential. Agent is related to the sellers.
