About This Home

As of August 2018

Charming Old World Style Victorian Twin. Lots of space in this beauty from a bygone era! If you like nostalgia you will love the original hardwood floors, original wood banisters, 9 foot ceilings, original 8 foot doors complete with transom windows, there is even a pocket door between the living and dining rooms! Second and third floor bathrooms have the original claw foot tubs. The third level has a complete kitchen. Two of the bedrooms have tiled fireplace surrounds. All systems are in great condition. Newer forced air gas heater and hot water heater. Many windows have been replaced. There are no active leaks in any of the ceilings or walls......or would make a great rooming house, halfway house, etc.
