About This Home

Welcome to 185 Owen Avenue - a center hall stone colonial set on a beautifully landscaped corner lot in one of Lansdowne's most desirable neighborhoods. Offering over 3,000 square feet of living space, this 5 bed, 2.5 bath home is being offered for the first time in more than 60 years. From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the homes mature landscaping, charming brick walkway, stately columns, and classic stone construction that reflect the craftsmanship of the early 1900s. Inside, a grand hall foyer welcomes you with 9ft ceilings, oversized windows, leaded glass details, original woodwork, and built-ins that showcase the character that makes Lansdowne's historic homes so special. The living room centers around a wood burning fireplace with its original mantel, flanked by french doors that open to a sun-filled four-season porch with radiant heated floors and exterior access. The formal dining room features updated hardwood flooring and connects to the eat-in kitchen through a butler's pantry hall with original built-in cabinetry. The kitchen offers ceiling height cabinets, updated countertops & flooring, stainless steel appliances, a cozy breakfast nook, and access to a rear covered patio. Tucked nearby, a convenient powder room adds everyday functionality. Upstairs, the second floor offers four generously sized bedrooms, including one with access to a private terrace overlooking the yard, in addition to a full hall bath. The third floor provides an additional bedroom, full bath, ample storage, and potential for a sixth bedroom - ideal for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living. Completing the home is a full unfinished basement with laundry and plenty of additional storage space. Outside, the landscaping provides privacy while a large, flat side yard offers space for entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing. A detached garage offers additional storage or covered parking. Adding to the home's appeal is the original slate roof which has been thoughtfully maintained throughout ownership. Improvements include replacement of the ridge caps, reflashed chimney, replacement of the eyebrow roof section, installation of a metal roof over the rear flat dormer, and a 50 year roof installed over the enclosed porch in 2017. Enjoy the convenience of being just a short walk to downtown where you can enjoy a show at the newly restored Lansdowne Theater, Saturday mornings at the Lansdowne Farmers Market, restaurants, parks, and easy access to public transportation.
