There’s a front garden in addition to the large rear yard, all surrounded by iron fencing to provide a great outdoor play space for young residents and pets.

A wrap-around porch leads to the entry vestibule. Inside, glamorous Victorian details include sparkling leaded glass, original chestnut woodwork, gleaming hardwood flooring with ornate borders, and a working, wood-burning fireplace. There's approximately 3796 s.f. of interior space on 3 floors.

Recent improvements include a high-efficiency heater plus a high-efficiency heat pump hot water heater. Electric has been updated and PEX plumbing installed. There's also a luxurious 4-piece 2nd floor bath with radiant flooring! A job change is taking the owner elsewhere, so the property is ready for a new owner to continue the decorating.
