About This Home

As of April 2019

Reminiscent of Foursquare architecture displaying variations with the arched porch opening and bay windows. This home is a fabulous blend of 1920s vintage features, including original hardwood flooring throughout with today's hues & style! Enter through a leaded glass door to the living room that expands across the full width of the house, sun-drenched by 4 windows, and presents a center stage white brick fireplace. A wide passage to the dining room featuring bay window, starburst chandelier, and captivating stained & leaded glass window lites to kitchen. The kitchen has been remodeled revealing granite counters, large subway tile backsplash, white cabinetry, center island with seating plus tile flooring. Window door leads out to enclosed porch serving as a great mud room and storage of everyday items. The lower level is partially finished including a wet bar and rec room (current used as a home gym); separate laundry/mechanical room. Traditional newel post at beginning of wooden staircase to upper level hall with linen closet. The bathroom has been remodeled offering sconce lighting between mirror front medicine cabinets above double vanity of white cabinetry/drawers, glass sliding doors to shower with subway tile surround and rainshower head, plus white tile floor. Three bedrooms on the second level (2 with bay windows) and another on the 3rd level. The backyard is completed fenced with a patio area. A pedestrian door to the 2-car detached garage with access from the alley. Enjoy the large front porch with swing while overlooking the picturesque tree lined streets in this sidewalk neighborhood!
