About This Home

As of October 2020

Fantastic curb appeal - Enter this pretty Victorian through a wrought iron gate and fenced front yard to the gorgeous leaded glass front door with stained glass transom. Marble greets you inside the foyer and more beautiful woodwork. Double living/dining room features a fireplace with gas insert. Main floor full bath is an added bonus. Upstairs you have plenty of room - Rear porch was enclosed (may have been a kitchen at one time) and 3 addl bedrooms on second floor and full bath. Third floor offers two addl bedrooms. Yard is partially shaded with the largest crepe myrtles I've ever seen.
