Description:
The quintessential heft & intact character of this heirloom home embraces visitors in a big bear hug from the moment you walk the front steps up to the expansive canopy of its full-width front porch. Inside, formal living and dining rooms are roomy and resplendent in historic charm (original tile on the fireplace) & plenty of light, with clean lines, warm wood floors and tall ceilings. The large kitchen is a funky grandma special, ready to rock (or escort from its long dance with the early 1970s.) Two other adjacent spaces (“sunroom” and “mudroom”) on the main would be well-suited to office use or crafty nooks. A compact bath with shower is also located on the south side of the main floor. Upstairs, 3 generous yet cozy bedrooms are accompanied by a 2nd full bath, complete with clawfoot tub perfect for a soak or a scrub. In the unfinished basement opportunity abounds with excellent ceiling height (7’11” from the bottom of the joists to the floor), large square footage, wide open spaces as well as door to the exterior.
The roof is a new tear-off (gutters too!) & the whole interior has been repainted. Chimney has been renewed and is ready to greet the next 100 years. Myriad other recent improvements include sewer line repair, plumbing, light fixtures, & crawlspace. Off-street parking, a beloved community lending library, a beautiful front + bangin’ backyard (south-facing!) with a variety of decorative, native and edible species and covered back deck enhance the welcoming character of the home. With a bike score of 99 and a walk score of 88 in a clutch location in FoPo; everything you could want is right here!
