Realtor Comments
The majority of the windows have been upgraded to vinyl for energy efficiency and cleaning convenience, but there are two (2) stunning original stained glass windows which remain. The first floor is open and spacious enough for friends and family to enjoy together. The hardwood floors welcome you from room to room and embrace the natural light streaming in from the abundance of windows. The living room hosts a front facing bay window and the fireplace has been converted to gas. The formal dining room has solid wood pocket doors, beautiful wood accents (furniture can stay or go) and a butler’s door to the kitchen. The cozy kitchen has all the modern necessities (appliances stay) and a door to the back porch. Don’t miss the extra closet/pantry on your way to the first floor laundry room (appliances stay). Up the stairs you will find another beautiful window, open landing and solid wood built-ins. Four bedrooms (one of which also has a fully updated sleeping porch attached) all with spacious closets and ample windows. There is a full bath here (functional) but waiting for your redesign. There is also a walk-up to the attic with another world of possibilities. The hot water tank was newly installed in 2025, the heat is boiler with radiators. There are window a/c units in the main bedroom and the first floor (both can stay with the home). The roof is about 15 years old and the roof deck is easily visible from the walk-up attic. The panel box is 100 amp with circuit breakers. The yard (both front and back) is adorned with mature landscape plantings. There is plenty of green space for yard games, lawn furniture or whatever works for you. Delayed showings begin Tuesday, September 16, 2025 at 8am.
