This 4-5 bedroom home has been lovingly maintained by the current owner for over 60 years. It is located on a corner lot that is perfect to show off its Victorian features including a corner turret. The large living room has plenty of windows for natural light, including three stained glass windows. The dining room has a fireplace with a surround that includes a built-in bookcase. The fireplace has been sealed up, but would accept electric logs. The generously sized kitchen boasts an abundance of cabinets and counter top space and includes all appliances. There is also a table area in the kitchen and a built-in hutch. There are two bedrooms on the first floor, including a master bedroom with a half bathroom. The second bedroom is currently set up as a study. The first floor bathroom features a tub/shower. The second floor of this house adds three big bedrooms (one of which was a kitchen when the second floor of the house was recently rented out as an apartment) and a full bathroom with shower. The basement is partially finished with an office and den, and offers plenty of space for storage, laundry and workshop areas in the unfinished area. The new furnace and a/c were installed in 2020. The 2.5 car garage is 24'x27' and has plenty of room for work benches, cabinets and work area. There are three decks including one on the front of the house, one on the side of the house, and one at the back, for choices of outdoor relaxation. This home would be perfect for related living as the second floor can be accessed by a separate interior entrance. Until a couple of months ago, the owner of this home lived on the first floor while tenants lived on the second floor. This home is across the street from Stratton Riverside Park, and walking distance to downtown Morris with its quaint shops, restaurants and annual festivals. Please do not delay in seeing this home.
