About This Home

As of November 2023

**MULTIPLE OFFERS** CENTER OF ATTENTION FOR OVER 126 YEARS This stately home rests in the center of almost 2 acres and it has been the center of attention for the past 126 years. Rising high above all of its neighbors, this home features 5 large bedrooms upstairs (1 bedroom downstairs) and a 12' hallway. The front southwest corner boasts an imposing turret and the attic is larger than many of today's homes. Upon entering the home from the grand wrap-around front porch, the doors open into a spectacular 12' wide hallway with a massive Golden Oak staircase and Victorian fretwork. Wooden moldings and doors were made "on site". Both hinged and pocket doors are found throughout the house. Brick veneer was added 1902. HOME NEEDS LOTS OF TLC
