Classic Dutch Colonial has been in the same family for 50+ years and has had many of the big updates completed including windows and the unique efficient hydronic air handler convector heating system! This 1902 1560+ sq ft home only burned 708 gallons of oil to heat the entire three floors and provide all the hot water, too. When you first approach the home you're greeted by a large covered porch that has had many rocking chairs and conversations. The walkout basement also has a covered porch and provides privacy in the back yard. Once inside, you're greeted with the original gleaming hardwood floors, woodwork, trim and doors. Such a delight to see that it hasn't all been painted over. The kitchen is set up in two spaces with a galley kitchen that includes the sink, dishwasher and original butler pantry cabinets. The larger room has the refrigerator, stove and plenty of space for casual dining. There is a formal dining room that could be closed off by pocket doors from the living room. Another pocket door is located between the living room and formal front foyer with an elegant winding staircase upstairs to four bedrooms and full bathroom. Each bedroom has lovely views of birch trees, city lights, mountains and other classic architecture. The partially finished basement has a bathroom with a shower and laundry with a new washing machine. Move right in and enjoy this spacious home.
