About This Home
If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a Victorian home, but worried about the upkeep, this is the home for you! This home has been extensively remodeled to give you the best of both worlds: the warmth and craftsmanship of a historic property, paired with the comfort and reliability of a modern home. With all-new windows and separate HVAC systems for each level, you’ll enjoy consistent comfort year-round and zero drafts. The current owner took care of all of the big-ticket updates: a new roof, completely updated plumbing (to give piece of mind of no lead plumbing), new downstairs bathroom, and a stunning, fully renovated kitchen featuring marble floors and brand-new appliances. Even the laundry has been thoughtfully relocated to the second floor to be close by the large, upstairs bedrooms. What truly sets this home apart is its preserved character. Original woodwork, a grand entry staircase, and beautiful stained glass windows speak to its past. Crystal chandeliers add a touch of elegance to both the living and dining spaces, while the freshly painted interior reflects historically appropriate Victorian color selections. Lastly, the sizeable backyard and beautiful wrap-around porch offer a place for coffee in the morning or entertaining. The exterior siding and porch remain ready for your personal touch.
