About This Home

As of March 2021

The house has charm and character like no other house on the street. It was built in 1908 by the Italian stonemasons that this area is known for (Little Italy). The wood trim throughout the downstairs is chestnut, and you won't find it anywhere with the exception of houses that were built prior to 1920. Most people painted over the woodwork, and this house was no exception. It was a two year process to strip the paint and bring back the natural wood, which is a large part o the charm. The floors are southern heart pine throughout the house. The stairs and mantel were stripped of their varnish and refinished, as well. All the nooks and crannies and holes here and there are all part of its character from three owners past. Depending upon the time of day, each room gets a great deal of light. The front porch is a favorite place anytime of day and great for pre-festival gatherings. The roses in the backyard are spectacular at the beginning of June. The whites (Boleros) on either side of the red smell amazing. The ones on the opposite side have an amazing peach/red color. The hydrangea in the back left corner of the yard will bloom in August. In between the roses on the right side of the patio is a Korean Spice Viburnum that blooms in early April and smells great. Improvements include:2015: Constructed a large, new closet in primary bedroom Removed carpet & refinished hardwood floor in same room Repainted all walls of primary bedroom & middle bedroom 2016: Removed carpet & refinished hardwood floor in dining room & 1st floor hall Installed blinds in living and dining rooms 2017: Repainted living room walls & ceiling. Installed blinds in primary bedroom 2018: Repainted dining room walls & ceiling Replaced water heater 2019: Replaced Lazy Susan in kitchen pantry closet with new heavy duty drawers that maximized storage space. Installed blinds in middle bedroom 2020: Completely reconstructed refrigerator & coffee bar area cabinetry Installed a new resin-finish wood counter & open shelving that expanded storage capacity & optimized daylight in the space Repainted walls & ceiling of front bedroom, 1st floor hall & stairs to 2nd floor Installed blinds in front bedroom
