About This Home

As of April 2013

The 1882 Gustave Heye House sits behind a white picket fence and is a great example of an updated East End historic home that has preserved its original architecture. Its interior has craftsman touches with dark woodwork and a grand staircase with a boot keep for storage. Upstairs has a very versatile layut with the potential for two masters. Fantastic master bath with a large jacuzzi tub and separate glass shower. Gorgeous kitchen with private family area and deck just outside the back door.
