...Come In! 1500 Edgevale is a magical house for Dreamers & Hopers & Wishers & all those buyers Shel Silverstein must've been writing about...
...w/Real Divided-Light Panes! Be sure to look around the house for darling little windows tucked into closets or porches. The details you just don't see these days.
Step out the screen porch to grill on the deck or relax on your large private patio!
You'll note the unique Clinker Bricks used in building this cottage. Once considered "defective" due to their too-close exposure to the fire in the brick kilns, Clinker Bricks came into style in the 1900s.
Lower Level: Full Partially-Finished Basement w/Carpeted Den/Play Area (Fireplace/Half Bath); Laundry Room; Garage; Storage
Opens to Screen Porch for Great Social Evenings or Just a Great Breeze & Night Sounds.

Your own personal ZEN space...sitting area, sleeping area, and dressing area. Say ah-h-h-h!
Generously-sized Closet with even more room for added hanging racks down the center of the room.
Dressing Room--Vanity Table--Lots of Natural Light PLUS Great Lighting! You'll love the space in this 19x16 closet!

Big enough for TWO to share (as pictured) with a large walk-in closet & wonderful bookcase wall. Original paneling & large windows add charm & light.
This house is filled with over-sized closets tucked under eaves that can double as creative play space or cozy reading nook. The generous bookcases will delight you.
Ideal for buyers who want a 1st Floor Master! This 15x12 space w/closet, charming original cabinetry, and attached full bath could easily be the one for you.
Centrally placed between the 1st Floor Bedroom(s)/Study.
Located off the main hall, this spacious room is the ideal study/home office with its bookcase wall and storage closet. Or use it for a bedroom/guestroom. There's an attached full bath for convenience.
Turn Up the Fan & Summer Nights are Cool! Roomy enough for a large table plus a sitting area. This Screen Porch is perfect for family or for entertaining.
...& Living Room & Patio. The Screen Porch may well become your favorite room TWO of our four seasons! ;)
