Realtor Comments
Original trim and hardwood floors. The built-in bookshelves with original stain-glass flank the woodburning fireplace and a built in hutch sits perfectly in the formal dining room window with matching stain-glass. Enclosed front porch with the original glass-louver windows plus a full basement with 2nd bathroom offer plenty of space to spread-out. 2-car detached garage too! It’s hard to find a bungalow this original … Add a little paint and polish and you’ve got a real gem here. Our Seller bought the house from the original (family) owner 7 years ago.
