Property Description
Own a piece of history in this classic stone Victorian built at the turn- of- the- century. This special home has been owned by the same family for the past 60 years. All original architectural details such as deep window sills, tall baseboards, crown molding, chair rail, pocket doors, stain leaded glass windows, raised paneled doors, window seats, and curved walls have been preserved and gives this home true historic ambiance . This house was built higher than surrounding homes with an impressive wrap around patio giving it a great sense of privacy and prominence. As you approach the main entrance, you will step through the original glass panel double wood doors into an elegant foyer with 10-foot ceilings and an intricate wood carved paneled staircase leading to the 2nd floor. On the left side of the foyer you will find an incredibly spacious Living Room/Dining Room with large windows, beamed ceilings, original wood framed French door that leads to the patio and a marble fireplace with a magnificent carved wood mantel with a framed mirror on the top. To the right side of the foyer you will find a parlor with curved wall, large windows and a decorative fireplace. The large Kitchen has the original hand-crafted tall cabinets, a center island, Corian counters, two pantry cabinets, a brick fireplace and all newer appliances including a 5 burner cook top, double wall oven, dishwasher and a built-in microwave. There are also back stairs that lead to the second floor and a door that leads to a lovely covered back porch. A large laundry/mud room is conveniently located off of the kitchen with outside access from the back porch. Completing the 1st floor is a side door that allows access from the driveway and a powder room. The 2nd floor consists of 3 connected bedrooms that could be turned into a primary suite as it has a full bath. There are 2 additional nice sized bedrooms, a hall bath and 2 walk in closets in the hallway. The large 3rd floor has a spacious bedroom, a bathroom with a walk-in storage closet and 2 additional rooms that are currently used for storage but could easily be turned into bedrooms. This elegant home is situated on a beautifully landscaped 1/2 an acre lot with a large fenced back yard, picturesque side yard, detached 2 car garage and a long driveway that could accommodate 8 cars. The full unfinished basement with high ceilings allows for unlimited storage. Two zone air condition systems supplies cooling for the entire house. There are oak hardwood floors throughout the main level and pine floors on the 2nd and 3rd floors. This great property is priced under market value to allow for updating and improvements by its new owner.
