The warm, welcoming appeal & unique character of this beautiful home begins at the curb & continues throughout the entire property.  Well maintained & classically updated, with some of the most interesting pieces of history, this home is one that you must see to truly appreciate.  My words & pictures here will definitely not do it justice.

The current owners have owned this gem for over 25 years & have done an amazing job with all of their improvements.  Most of the home contains gorgeous original hardwood floors which are in pristine condition.  The bedrooms are wonderfully sized with tons of storage throughout.  Many of the interior doors have been custom made & hand crafted & are absolutely gorgeous.

While working on the kitchen upgrades, the contractor’s mistake with a slip of his hammer revealed the original brick walls hidden behind the wall coverings.  Seeing the beauty behind the plaster, the owners chipped away to expose the glorious brick in the kitchen & one of the bedrooms.

Then, during another remodeling project, the owners found a 1951 penny hidden along the baseboard.  They feel certain that this is the year that the original portion of the home was built.  And, it’s only fitting that the penny will convey to the new owners.

And, you might wonder what the small door is that can be accessed from both the outside of the home & the kitchen.  It’s where the milk man that delivered bottles of fresh milk (back in the day) would leave his delivery so as not to disturb the owners in the wee hours of the morning.  And, when you take a look at the kitchen pantry, be sure to notice the small safe that has been built into the wall.

When you’re in the huge backyard (the property sits on 2 city lots) be sure to notice the large slab of concrete.  This is where the original owners had a badminton court.  Perfect location these days for any toy with wheels, a basketball court, or even an outdoor sitting area.

There is a separate building that houses the utility room that has wonderful storage.  The other building in the back yard, at one time, was used as a separate guest room.  It has entrances from the back yard and from the alley which makes its uses quite versatile. There’s even an outdoor shower!  And, wait until you see the huge sunroom with its wall of east-facing windows & its pellet stove.  The sunroom is so large that it can house the pool table, the office, an extra living area – all at the same time.

I’ve shared some of the unique features of this home that you might have otherwise missed but would like to cordially invite you to come take a look at this stunning property so that you can enjoy firsthand all it has to offer.  Located on a corner lot, on a brick lined street, with large shade trees & a beautifully landscaped yard, this gem awaits its new owners.  Give us a call.
