Historic home in the heart of downtown Clarksdale and walking distance from the blues scene
Description
Don't miss the chance to make this historic Delta home on Yazoo Avenue your own! Built in 1912 by the Cutrer family, the house stands centrally in downtown Clarksdale only a block away from the music scene. The 3,573 square foot home features 3 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms with a large fenced in backyard where you can likely hear live music playing in the downtown nearby. Upon entering the front door, you are taken back in time with a large formal living room that has an amazing Italian marble mantle over the fireplace. The mantle is one of a kind and was original to the Cutrer Mansion, the well known Clarksdale landmark next door. The living room also showcases light fixtures original to the Cutrer family that further adds to the home's grand entrance!
Beyond the living room, there is an open layout that leads to a large dining room with hardwood floors and an antique chandelier. Also off the living room is a sun porch that would be a great place to start the day with a view of downtown in the distance. The kitchen is spacious with brand new floors and contains a double oven, a large kitchen island with a stovetop, and a wet bar with its own lighting. There is also a small office area off the kitchen with built in filing drawers. The back door entrance off the kitchen leads past a small covered sitting area overlooking Yazoo to a full garage and driveway.
Down a few steps from the kitchen, you will find a large den with a wood burning fireplace. The den is the most popular room in the house and would be a great way to spend the evening with friends or family by a crackling fire! There is also a large laundry room and another full bathroom off the den. French doors lead from the den to the large backyard that is gated with a garden, several sitting areas, and a large storage house.
The master suite is large and spacious with a master bath that was remodeled in 2023 with his and hers sinks and a large walk in closet. Off the master, is a large bonus room with bay windows overlooking the backyard. Across the hall from the master there are (2) more bedrooms with a jack and jll bathroom and another full bath at the end of the hall. Along with the expansive floorplan and the classic design of this home comes the central location that cannot be beat. A short sidewalk stroll will lead you to downtown in one direction and to the popular Clark Street neighborhood in the other. 39 Yazoo is bordered by (2) popular law offices on one side and the open grounds of the Cutrer mansion on the other, giving it a private and secluded feel while also being steps away from the music scenes. This timeless Delta home on Yazoo Avenue is even better in person and has to be witnessed for the full experience!
