About This Home
As of July 2024Welcome to this charming Mount Washington two-story craftsman built in 1906! From the moment you enter through the front gate, the verdant setting will enchant you. An abundance of mature trees, lush grass, patio, and deck offer so many outdoor spaces to enjoy. The first floor flows beautifully through the living, kitchen and dining room out through the French doors to the deck, creating the ultimate indoor/outdoor living. The primary suite is also found on the first floor. An elegant staircase takes you to a stunning landing with large bay windows and hillside views. There are two more bedrooms upstairs featuring built-in desks and shelving. The one-car garage (added in 1920!) would make a perfect art studio or home office. Enjoy the appeal of a character home with the advantage of upgraded, energy-efficient systems. Close to all the shops and restaurants NELA has to offer and with downtown just around the corner, you'll find location is everything! Welcome home.
