About This Home
As of April 2024A truly beautifully Arts & Crafts period home built solid as a rock in 1924. Adorned with original oak hardwood floors, wide non painted original oak trim balance the Dinning room and Living room space. The dinning room has an original long window bench for setting with hinged top surfaces to store games, toys or blankets. Walking out from the living room to a perfect porch for an evening swing or to read your mail as it’s delivered here. The entire home has been just professionally painted with new ceilings in the dining room and living room. The kitchen has a new natural gas stainless steel range, new stainless high CFM ( high suction) range hood, new stainless sink, a disposal and new matching Stainless steel refrigerator. There is a in kitchen nook for a two stool bar height breakfast bar. The flooring in the kitchen is new. The bathroom has newly installed flooring, a new ceiling fan & high out put LED lighting and new plumbing. The bathroom hall has non painted original built in old growth red pine cupboards (a Craftsman period must) for lots of towels above and storage drawers below from ceilings to the floor. The bedrooms have old growth (no longer available) Red Pine floors, a ceiling fan and a large 8 foot closet in each bedroom. The Bonus Basement is same foot print as above less the porch. The basement is where the added value is realized. Each room has white painted ceilings, properly prepped and painted exterior walls, and floors. The basement has a washer and dryer, automatic empty dehumidifier, New natural gas 40 gallon water heater and extras. The extras are the paints used upstairs, spare matching roof shingles, spare kitchen floor planks & more. The 100 amp electrical box and service is new. The furnace is 80 percent efficient and even with heating the basement, gas bill average $90 a month in winter. This is a warm house with more than ample insolation in the attic. If you’re in an apartment paying $1300 to $1600 month calculate the savings in a monthly mortgage instead. The outside yard is nicely landscaped by Dave. Ornamental tall grasses display color and a feathered fall look for winter street side. Along the ally against house are clumps of a hybrid bamboo that won’t reproduce and stays to its original foot print. It’s a trouble free home and ready to move into immediately.
