This Victorian home seamlessly blends the charm of yesteryear with modern comfort, offering a truly unique living experience that has been owned by the same family since 1964.
As you approach, you can imagine the block in the late 19th century. The exterior exudes a classic Victorian style that showcases the craftsmanship of that era. The charm continues as you step through the front door into a foyer that transports you to a different time, with original details and period-specific style. As you enter the parlor, the original doors, high ceilings, and fireplace immediately take you back in time.
The kitchen was added at some point gaining additional square footage. It is a charming blend of vintage aesthetics and modern convenience. Original features have been seamlessly integrated with contemporary appliances, creating a space that is as functional as it is nostalgic. The dining area is perfect for hosting intimate gatherings, with floor-to-ceiling windows and lots of light, an original fireplace, and hardwood floors.
