About This Home

As of September 2020

Known for large and impressive designs, homes in the Victorian style were a popular choice during the mid 1800's. Builders worked tirelessly to design newer and fancier ways to add decor and ornamentation to houses of this era. So is the style of this beautiful, 4 bedroom 3 and a half bath Victorian style home. Dedicated in keeping with the original builders ideas, the remodeling completed on this stately home shows the care the owner took to bring back the luster this home truly deserves. The complex roof lines pull the eye to this top of the house, The interior showed detailed floor designs, with parquet flooring. throughout the house. High ceilings, crown molding, original fireplace mantles, stained glass windows and doors, add to the flavor of the era. One of the original owners, a respected attorney in the area, has left his Diebold Safe with the home in pristine condition.
