**MORE THAN A HOME THIS IS A LIFESTYLE, A PIECE OF IONE HISTORY, AND A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO BECOME PART OF A STORY THAT BEGAN IN 1880.** Welcome to 104 S. Church Street, a beautiful and whimsical Victorian residence nestled in the historic heart of charming Ione, California. Offering 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms and approximately 1,930 sq. ft., this distinctive home blends nearly 150 years of character with the warmth and simplicity of small-town living. Imagine stepping outside your front door and strolling just a block or two to local dining, shopping and the heart of town. Leave the car parked, grab a morning coffee, enjoy dinner nearby or take an evening walk along historic streets where neighbors still say hello. It's a lifestyle increasingly difficult to find and one that makes 104 S. Church Street truly special. Built in 1880, just a few years after the railroad arrived in Ione in 1876, this Victorian took shape during an important period in the town's history. By then, Ione had grown from its Gold Rush-era beginnings into an established agricultural, commercial and transportation community. Church Street itself had been part of Ione's developing town center for decades before this home was built. Step inside and discover the craftsmanship and architectural character that make historic homes so captivating. Period details including beautiful woodwork, plaster walls, ornate molding, vintage built-ins, bead-board accents, stained glass and a distinctive curved staircase create an atmosphere rarely found in today's construction. Generously sized living spaces pair the character of yesterday with flexibility for today. For nearly a century and a half, this remarkable Victorian has stood as Ione evolved around it. Generations have passed and times have changed, yet the appeal of a close-knit community where everyday conveniences, local businesses and the heart of town are just moments away remains. 104 S. Church Street offers far more than square footage. It offers history, architecture, walk ability, community and the opportunity to own a home with a story. **This isn't simply a place to live. It's your chance to become the next chapter in a story that began in 1880.** Welcome home to **104 S. Church Street Historic Ione living at its most memorable.**
