About this home

Step into a piece of Carson City history with the iconic Elsey-Lindsay House, a beautifully preserved shingled Craftsman-style residence built in 1879 and thoughtfully updated to blend modern comfort with timeless character. Located just steps from the heart of downtown Carson City, this remarkable home has been a treasured part of the community for nearly 150 years. Lovingly maintained and carefully remodeled, it offers a rare opportunity to own a property rich in history while enjoying the conveniences of today. A charming front walkway leads to the inviting covered porch, complete with a porch swing overlooking the beautifully landscaped grounds. Inside, the 1,776-square-foot home showcases original hardwood floors in the living room, dining room, office, and bedroom, along with historic chandeliers and light fixtures dating back to 1929. The formal dining room features stunning built-in cabinetry with leaded glass, reflecting the craftsmanship of a bygone era. The updated kitchen combines efficiency and style with custom space-saving cabinetry and built-in appliances.
