If you love old homes this one is for you! This 7 Room Colonial was built in 1911, and boasts beautiful original woodwork throughout, including a 2nd floor staircase that can be accessed from both LR and kitchen! The home is set back from the road and is protected by many trees and shrubs to afford some privacy from the main road, and there is also ample space behind the home for outside enjoyment. There is a huge enclosed front porch overlooking the front yard, which brings you into the main part of the home. You will find a large LR with wood columns and a wood burning fireplace, that opens widely to the FDR that offers a beautiful built-in china cabinet (room is now being used as a 1st floor bedroom). There is also an EIK and a sitting area on this main level, plus a half bathroom that boasts a beautiful wood ceiling, and enclosed back porch as well. The second level offers 4 good sized bedrooms, all with original woodwork in tact, plus a full bath. The third level is a walk up attic that offers tons of possibilities, either just for storage or can be finished for additional living space. The laundry area is located in the basement, and the home has economical gas heat. The roof is 3 years old, the gutters and garage door are 5 years old, and some windows have been replaced. The 1 car garage has an unheated finished room above it that also offers many possibilities. This house does need some TLC to bring it back to its grandeur, but it's worth the effort!
