About This Home

As of November 2020

ONE OF A KIND could not be more true when viewing this house! Walking in the Front Door off of the Wrap Around Porch is a nice space that could be used as a great seating area or maybe just a quiet spot to read a book. There's a Large Living Room with large windows and beautiful hardwood floors. The dining room has so much charm with large wood trim and ceiling accents that you'll want to admire. Off the kitchen is a bonus room that ramps up with endless possibilities, would you want to make a Den, bedroom, or man cave area? On the second floor, going up from nearby the front door you'll see a bedroom with original hardwood floors (which it is believed those floors run through the entire second floor), and a Master bedroom that is large enough to have a seating area looking out the large windows onto Central Avenue. You'll find a door that leads up a staircase to the finished attic turned bedroom with an attached bathroom and TWO walk in closets! Back to the second floor there's another bedroom, a Second Kitchen, laundry area and a Full Bathroom. Off of the laundry area, you'll notice a second stairway that leads you back down to the kitchen. Off of the kitchen is a half bath and nice entryway off of the garage to organize your belongings. Going into the Attached 3 stall garage you'll notice it's insulated and has extra space to spare. The garage has an entrance into the basement, as well. You have to come see this historic property formerly used as a funeral home business, now used as a single family residence only. The roof on the main portion of the home was replaced in 2012, the back portion with flat roof was new in 2017. Water heater was new in 2018. Main floor has original working wooden pocket doors, a wood burning fireplace and the house has numerous beautiful lead glass windows.
