Property Description
Spectacular character house on a really nice street! This all brick 2-story home is very charming and sits on a very large lot that includes an extra parcel. It starts with really nice curb appeal. The front yard gardens and walkway are very welcoming and guide your guests to the front door. Center hall entryway with a very wide stairwell leading to the 2nd floor. The dining room is huge and includes a nice bump out window and built in corner cabinet. Wide plank oak flooring throughout the foyer, dining room, and living room. Spectacular living room with brick fireplace with gas logs and built in bookcases. You won't believe the size of this room, which also mirrors the main bedroom upstairs. The bump out windows are a recurring theme on the main level and are one-of-a-kind. There is a cute and cozy screened in porch off of the living room which adds to the charm of this home. Eat-in cherry kitchen with Corian counter top and back splash, tile floor, and gas range. Very convenient powder room off of the kitchen. The rear yard is accessed from the kitchen and there is small fenced area for a dog. There is a large 2-car garage with new doors, plus plenty of off-street parking. The driveway was recently repaved for you! The rear lot is second to none and includes and additional parcel that goes all the way down to Museum Rd. Wildlife abounds and it is not unusual to see a herd of deer passing by. Back inside we'll take the wide staircase up to the 2nd floor with 3 bedrooms and a hall bath. The primary bedroom is lovely and spacious. We believe there is oak flooring on the 2nd floor as well, but please verify. This home can definitely use some updating but the potential is tremendous. The chimney was recently redone and the basement walls were recoated and refreshed as well. The basement is very large and has a ton of storage space, plus there is a large attic for additional storage. Economical gas heat and hot water and windows replaced throughout. This home is definitely worth a tour.
