About This Home
As of December 2025Spacious is the word that comes to mind as you view this solid brick residence in the well sought after Hyde park area. This property has a connection to the 44th president Barack Obama as the family grew up with them & shared a backyard. The 2 1/2 garage was leased to the secret service detail assigned to protect the Obama's. The former garage, now two story coach house, was rehabbed to suit their needs and can be used as separate dwelling with its own HVAC, bath & kitchen or perhaps rented out for income or simply used as a guest house. As you enter into the residence you will notice the 10 ft beamed ceilings, dark woodwork, stained glass and hardwood floors throughout. This property features two fireplaces, two jacuzzi tubs, two stairways and a 2nd floor rear balcony. The 1st floor features a huge kitchen/dining room combo, pocket doors, kitchen nook, bathroom, & spare room. Front of basement is finished and boast a family room, game room, two bedrooms etc. Rear has mechanicals with newer furnace & hot water heaters, laundry room and walkout to yard. Second floor has master bedroom & 3 additional bedrooms. Third floor has 1 bedroom & two rooms that share a large hall closet. Did I mention the shed and long driveway? Showings for qualified buyers will be by appointment only. Come & see this Jewel and make it your own or invest and resale at a profit. "AS IS"
