About This Home

We are pleased to present to you a unique opportunity to own a piece of Paoli’s rich history. This charming home, originally built by Dr. Clark, served as both his medical practice and residence for many years. Dr. Clark was well known for his kind and gentle spirit, especially in his care for his community. The home also holds a special place in local lore, with stories of lively card games on the front porch, set against the backdrop of the County Courthouse and the downtown landscape. The residence is ready for your personal touches to bring out its full potential. Beneath the current carpeted floor coverings, beautiful hardwood floors are expected to be revealed throughout the main level, as well as in the three upstairs bedrooms. Elegant French-style doors with beveled glass separate the formal dining room from the expansive living room, adding a touch of sophistication. The dining room features period built-in cabinets with glass doors, while the living room boasts a working fireplace flanked by original built-in shelving. The front entry door is original and matches the style of the French doors, enhancing the home’s historic charm. Upstairs, a spacious landing off the stairwell offers room for a small workstation or sitting area, along with additional storage behind a closed door. Each of the three bedrooms provides ample closet space, with two offering lovely views of the downtown area. The full, unfinished basement garage can easily accommodate multiple vehicles and provides abundant space for a workshop or storage. A standalone shower in the basement offers convenience for freshening up after completing dirtier tasks before entering the main residence. Recent updates include modern wiring, ensuring comfort and safety for its current occupants over the past several decades. This home is truly a rare find, combining historical significance with practical living space.
