• Architectural Style: Victorian
• Ownership: Fee Simple
• New Construction: No
• Story List: Main, Upper 1
• Year Built: 1884
• Remarks Public: ATTENTION!! $5,500 total dollars is all you'll need, if you qualify*, to reside in this circa 1884 Brick Victorian, with loads of square footage and many upgrades, including a 200 AMP electric service, new Gas Heating system, 1st floor powder room, yet still retaining most of the many remarkable late 19th century architectural features. WE ARE NOT KIDDING HERE! Only $5,500 total dollars are needed, and your mortgage payment, with real estate taxes included, will be less than $1,200 per month. That's way less than you'd pay for renting a house like this one! From the front/side wraparound porch, to the upper level "Gingerbread" trim and circle-top windows, to the square turret, you'll be amazed at how this wonderful structure has stood the test of time, for more than a century. Upon entering an enclosed vestibule area, it opens immediately to a beautifully sculpted staircase that leads up to the second level. There are a pair of massive, solid wood pocket doors that open up to a parlor, or entertainment room area, with the original wooden floors, a mirrored imitation Fireplace, wide sculpted trim, plus another set of huge wooden pocket doors that next lead into the wide Living Room area. Again, the original wood floors, wide sculpted wood trim, and interior wood-shuttered windows bring this post civil war era to the forefront. There's also a passage door that leads onto the side/front porch. In addition, authentic and massive paneled doors are available to accentuate the area leading from here and into the huge Dining Room. There's also a passage door that leads to another side porch, plus there's a door that provides a direct access to a first floor Powder Room. There's a galley-style Kitchen and eating area, as well as a passage door that leads to a rear porch. Heading upstairs, it again displays the original wooden floors, wide trim, over-door transoms, and much more, with the 4 Bedrooms and Bathroom. In addition, there's a huge closet at the front end of the hallway, where loads of clothing can be stored. The 3rd floor attic is separated into two separate rooms, each of which are finished off with plastered walls and ceilings. Good things don't end up here either, as the basement reveals a 200 AMP electric service, plus a newly installed Gas-Fired steam heater for the utmost in heating efficiency. Finally, there's a detached garage out back, with direct access to the rear alley. Again - $5,500 TOTAL, if you qualify!
