About This Home
As of July 2023Welcome to Historic Sherman Hill! This grand 2 story home boasts gorgeous landscaping, a 2 car garage built in 2015, newer furnace, water heater and roof! As you walk inside you'll appreciate the hardwood floors, fresh neutral paint and main floor laundry with a 3/4 bathroom. Upstairs you'll find 3 good-sized bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms (very rare in a historic home!) and a bonus room which is perfect for a nursery, home office or a treadmill. One of the bathrooms just went through a luxurious remodel. Other updates include exterior work and paint, insulation in walls and energy blanket in attic (low budget billing), and a new electrical panel in 2015. Some tax abatement through 2025. Walkable to so many restaurants, stores and parks!
