Property Description
Step into the charm and character of this vintage 1920s two-story home, thoughtfully maintained and full of timeless features. Relax on the inviting enclosed front porch with crank-out windows, allowing a gentle breeze to flow through the space! The sunlit living room showcases original narrow-gauge oak wood flooring and leads to a formal dining room adorned with intricate woodwork and built-in cupboards featuring stunning leaded glass doors. There is also 1920's lighting in some of the rooms throughout. The first-floor office, complete with built-ins and crown molding, provides a functional yet elegant workspace. The kitchen blends vintage charm with modern convenience, boasting a vintage sink, butcher block counters, newer appliances including a gas stove, and built-in cabinets with glass doors. A built-in ironing board and hardwood oak flooring (updated in 1996) complete the space. The four-square Craftsman railing leads you upstairs to a wide staircase and a spacious landing with a built-in storage closet. The primary bedroom features a cedar-lined walk-in closet and hardwood floors, while two additional bedrooms also offer walk-in closets. The hall bathroom includes a vanity, tub, shower, and additional storage nearby. The finished basement is perfect for entertaining, with a coal room and the space under the porch for extra storage and a utility area equipped with a rough-in for a bathroom, laundry chute, new washer & dryer (2023), freezer, and updated mechanicals, including a Lennox furnace and central air (2015) and a hot water heater (2018). Outside, newer soffits and gutters complement the property, along with a 2-car garage featuring an attic and basement. Situated across from a playing field and just steps from Lord's Park, this home is ideal for leisurely strolls and outdoor enjoyment. Overflowing with vintage charm and abundant storage, this home is a rare find! **Please note: working toilet and sink are located in unfinished area in basement. The pool is 18' round and installed in 2023 with an upgraded sand filter and pump added this summer 2024. The deck was also built in 2023. Seller has the Original Deed to the home.
