4 BR Home in Helena

A magnificent 1889 Italianate style residence is ready for new owners at 826 Dearborn Avenue in the Helena Mansion District. Originally constructed and occupied by George O. Yergy, renowned for his exceptional woodworking craftsmanship evident in the pocket doors, window sashes, moldings, fireplace, and banister. This two-story home proudly sits on a spacious third-acre, fully fenced, double corner lot. The main floor is perfect for entertaining with a classic living area featuring the original coal-burning fireplace (now purely decorative), a dining room, and an updated kitchen. The first floor also includes a library and a newly renovated three-quarter bathroom. The first-floor library and bathroom could potentially be transformed into a main-floor primary suite with some modifications (such as adding a closet). Upstairs, four generous bedrooms, two bathrooms, and laundry facilities complete the living area. The high ceilings on each floor create a light, airy atmosphere. The home still retains many of its original wavy glass windows. Enjoy the two-car detached garage and separate shop with electricity, ideal for storing gardening tools or converting into a retreat space. The meticulously maintained yard, with years of careful gardening, boasts a variety of colorful perennials. Space in the backyard has been set aside for a greenhouse and a new chicken coop. This cherished historical home exudes the charm of 1890s architecture while being updated with modern amenities such as bathrooms, electrical systems, plumbing, and appliances. Don’t miss the opportunity to explore all that this stunning home has to offer. Contact Kristin Kerr at 406-235-0555 or your Real Estate Professional today.
