Nestled within the Prospect Park South Historic District, this Victorian home of graceful proportions has 6 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 3 half baths, HVAC, updated systems, a driveway to accommodate 3 cars and a finished garage. Set behind the well planted front yard, 197 Rugbys front porch gives entry to a lovely, open entry foyer. Stained glass windows flank the north and west sides, with cork flooring below and coffered ceilings above. The oak woodwork frames the double built-in seating that focuses around the foyers wood burning fireplace. To the right is the grand scale living room that allows for multiple conversational spaces. The dining room with built in china cabinet and south facing bay window is adjacent.
