About This Home
As of July 2023An incredible opportunity to own an historic 5-6 bedroom 2.5 bath home in a wonderful, walkable neighborhood, nestled between Wealthy St & Cherry St/East Hills, 2 vibrant shopping/dining/business districts. Much of the character on the main floor has been beautifully preserved from the gracious covered porch, custom millwork, entryway tiles, wood floors, leaded and stained glass windows, fireplace, antique hardware & more. High ceilings on all 4 levels including the basement for an extra spacious and light-filled feel. The 2nd-floor bedrooms have hardwood floors under the carpeting. The 3rd level is finished and offers a huge bonus room. The basement has both finished and hobby or storage space, and much of the beautiful fieldstone walls have been re tuckpointed for strength & security. Outside the newer 50 year long-lasting metal roof looks like tile and is sound-dampening. Once the home of the original Community Auto Co. now on Fulton St.The property features an historic garage, and two driveways, giving plenty of desirable off-street parking a coveted benefit in this historic neighborhood. The character of yesteryear, the livability of today, and the chance to put your own personal stamp on an amazing home. You don't want to miss this!
