New roof 2023! Front porch is copper and 2nd story bay roof was upgraded with 50yr shingles! Step onto the welcoming front porch, where there’s ample space to relax and enjoy conversations with neighbors.
Entering through the original front doors, you’re greeted by a fabulous tiled foyer adorned with stunning newer stained glass work. Moving past the second doorway, you’ll find beautifully refinished parquet hardwood floors showcasing intricate patterns throughout.
To the left, indulge in the spacious living room featuring a cozy gas fireplace and exquisite original moldings and trim—perfect for cozy evenings. Continuing down the hall, the formal dining room awaits, complete with accent trim work and more stained glass accents that enhance its charm.
The heart of the home is the charming country kitchen at the rear, boasting updated cabinets, modern fixtures, a gas range, dishwasher, and an inviting island. A unique back stairway adds character, leading to the upper floors.
Bonus features include two back porches! The first, off the kitchen, was previously a pantry and laundry room (now relocated to the basement but can be easily moved back). It also houses the original icebox, a nod to the home’s storied past. The second porch overlooks the totally fenced, tiered yard, complete with a spacious concrete patio—ideal for outdoor entertaining.
Heading upstairs, you’ll discover a cozy back bedroom with a gorgeous functioning gas fireplace. The next bedroom currently serves as a large office and flows into the master bedroom. A full bathroom on this floor features updated tile and adjoins one of the bedrooms.
The third floor offers even more space with another full bathroom completely updated featuring new stahl shower, and along with three additional bedrooms—perfect for guests or family.
The basement includes laundry facilities and a convenient walk-out. With upgraded 200 amp service, a gas water heater, and a new steam boiler in Sept 2023, this home combines historic charm with modern conveniences.
