## Description

### Agent Description
A Yesteryear find! Believed to date to 1854, this 3 BD striking Greek Revival residence on Main Street in Union, with its imposing two-storey columned porch, offers generous proportions, remarkable historic character, and the rare opportunity to complete a thoughtful restoration already well underway. Set in the heart of town, the property is within walking distance of everyday essentials, while downtown Lewisburg is a short drive away for dining, galleries, and shops. Aerial views reveal one of the property's particular attractions: its small-town setting gives way almost immediately to the rolling farmland and mountain landscape for which this part of the Greenbrier Valley is known. The house retains original heart-pine floors, large historic windows, substantial period mantels, and generously proportioned rooms arranged around an elegant central hall. At its heart is the graceful foyer staircase, with its handsome newel post and curving handrail, complemented by a handmade metallic tea-paper ceiling in a historic style that adds a subtle touch of silver-gold. Many of the ground-floor windows have been carefully restored using their original frames and glass, and central heating and air conditioning serve the house. All four chimneys have been rebuilt and fitted with stainless-steel liners. Three open fireplaces incorporate Rumford-style fireboxes, while the primary bedroom features a porcelain-enamel HearthStone Clydesdale wood-burning stove. Much of the difficult infrastructure and preservation work has already been undertaken. The house is comfortable to occupy while the remaining finish work is completed, leaving a new owner the rewarding opportunity to bring the remaining rooms and exterior details to completion while preserving the character that makes the property so distinctive. Custom porch components have also been prepared and are included with the property, providing a meaningful head start on the remaining exterior work. For a buyer who values historic architecture, generous rooms, walkable small-town living, and the opportunity to steward a rare nineteenth-century home, 540 Main Street offers an unusually compelling combination of character, setting, and potential. PHOTO NOTE: The property is currently substantially vacant. A small number of photographs show rooms as previously furnished to illustrate scale and use. Some current photographs have been digitally edited solely to remove temporary stored boxes and other movable items that would otherwise obscure the rooms; no structural, architectural, or permanent features of the property have been altered.
