| THIS PROPERTY HAS BEEN REDUCED!
Picture an elegant Victorian built in 1880 with all its splendid appointments. Then, add a homeowner who appreciates old beauties and who lovingly restored this Grand Old Dame to her former glory. They updated the electrical, plumbing, baths, kitchen and added a 3 car garage while retaining all the character.
This owner also recovered many pieces of furniture that belonged to the original owners, the Hart family, and bought them to return them to their rightful home. One bedroom set and several pieces can stay with home for the new owner. The floors are herringbone oak/maple or hardwood oak or planked pine in most rooms where they could be saved.
There are embossed ceilings to replicate the tin ceiling of the period, crown molding and triple based molding to go with the beautiful oak woodwork and staircase. The first floor includes a parlor/music room, living room, billiard room, formal dining room, family room, breakfast room/kitchen combo, laundry alcove, butlers pantry and full bath/powder room. 2 sets of pocket doors open off the center hall foyer.
The kitchen has the wonderful old porcelain sink with nubbed wood cabinets all new in 2005. Top of the line appliances include GE Monogram stainless steel side by side refrigerator, dishwasher, gas range/oven and convection/cook Advantum microwave. There are also Round Oak old fashioned cook stove and wood stove in the breakfast room. 2 fireplaces are located in the parlor and living room and the pantry is original cabinets floor to ceiling.
This owner has beautiful oriental rugs that also may stay with the home. Upstairs, there are 4-5 bedrooms, 2 bedrooms have full baths attached, one of those the Master Bedroom also has a huge walk in closet with laundry chute and rear attic access. The other 2 bedrooms share a full bath.
There is an alcove seating area in the front off the hall and in the back by the bath which could be a 5th bedroom. There is a full regular staircase to the Granny full stand up attic with upper turret and restored color glass in the windows.
This space is not finished but could be. It is impossible to truly describe this beautiful Victorian but judging by the exterior you might guess at what beauties lie inside. Wrap around front porch has a wicker furniture sitting area and the rear porch overlooks a magnificent yard complete with an in-ground pool, gazebo, doll house, fountain, patio and fantastic landscaping.
The full basement offers a workshop and tons of space for storage and the 3 car garage was added in 2003. It would be very easy to make this a small B&B or magnificent to use as your treasured family house. Pictures do not do this home justice.
