Absolutely the "rarest bird" in the government house flock, this "G" house is one of only 8 ever constructed and it simply could NOT have had more thoughtful loving over the years. Enlarged, renovated and improved throughout it's lifetime, it's now an opportunity to capture all the charm and warmth of days' gone by without compromising conveniences. A comprehensive list of all that's taken place inside and out of these walls fills many pages and can be made available to interested parties but suffice it to say the JOB WELL DONE is only too obvious.Located literally steps away from the river,parks and paths, you'll discover views from almost every room BOTH up and down. You'll return from an invigorating walk along the riverside path to this treasured home with open spaces allowing easy flow for living and entertaining. A 2014 "to the studs" kitchen reno featuring custom glazed cabinetry, a generous wood island,stainless appliances and induction cooktop spills into dining that's surrounded by a wall of windows.The living space features custom builtins ,classically appealing natural gas fireplace and surround sound. An always appreciated mainfloor bedroom has ready access to a 3/4 bath with accessible tiled shower,heated tile floors AND the whole main floor is anchored by beautifully refinished ORIGINAL wood floors! Upstairs there are 3 generous bedrooms including a master with 9'ceilings and a walkin closet!!! Exactly where do you find that in another government house? The upstairs bath has double vanities, a jetted tub and heated tile floors as well!

The garage is a "you've got to see THIS" space for a woodworker/mechanic/car aficionado or those who just have lots of "stuff". It's over 1200' with an easily acessible 800' loft. WAIT?WHAT? This one is the whole package....don't delay! The value is unmistakable and the sellers respect for the original very special product is undeniable. A JOY to see, it'll be an even greater joy to OWN!
