About This Home

As of June 2018

A large circular driveway introduces you to this all-brick home ready to be returned to its former glory. Situated on a 6-acre parcel, surrounded by wildflowers, grassy meadows and the comfort of knowing the land will remain unspoiled, there are plenty of renovation possibilities whether to restore or re-design. With its solid bones, large rooms, and charm that awaits that special someone who can capitalize on all its potential, there are many original features worth preserving like built-ins, a spacious enclosed porch, and a totally retro finished basement with a dual-sided fireplace, half bath, and adorable island bar with a sink. All the warmth and character of this home come together in the large combined living and dining areas with a fireplace and picture window, open via glass doors to the porch. Three bedrooms are nicely-sized with wood floors near the hall bath and there is a powder room near the home office/den and the spacious kitchen. With the right improvements, this home could offer an impressive return on investment in desirable Montgomery with its top schools!
