Description

There's something about the 10' ceilings, two original fireplaces, and a grand 3-story staircase in this Victorian-era home that evokes the dignity of the past, and enriches the open, easy living of the present. The exceptionally large, updated kitchen has an informal dining area that leads to a semi-enclosed deck for privacy.

The exceptionally large, updated kitchen has an informal dining area that leads to a semi-enclosed deck for privacy. The formal dining room has a family room in one bay, and is adjacent to the formal living room, which can be closed off with the original pocket doors. All four bedrooms are upstairs. The master bedroom with a walk-in closet, has an unusually large bathroom featuring a whirlpool tub, separate shower, and built-in bookcase! In the back bedroom section, there's a common area along with an updated full bath. The beautiful, open staircase ascends to the attic that has plenty of space for your creative ideas! From the second level, there is a back stairway to the main level and basement. The original bay windows in the dining/family room do not open, but are preserved for their historic value, as are the original fireplaces that are decorative only. Only blocks away from the City park and vibrant downtown, this 4-bedroom home may be just what you've been waiting for!
