$5,000 Closing Bonus To The Buyer
LISTED $5,000 UNDER RECENT APPRAISED VALUE AND DRASTICALLY REDUCED FOR QUICK SALE. This nearly 3,000 sq.ft. three bedroom residence offers the charm of yesteryear with modern day conveniences and comforts and is set on a corner lot in an established neighborhood. The private yard is completely fenced and full of mature trees (some fruit) and plants and the property is zoned RM9-multi family. A covered porch is a classic entry and welcomes you to come in and stay for awhile. Enter through a wood door with old fashioned peek-a-boo window. Inside, this solid home embraces old world beauty with nostalgic touches such as inlaid wood floors, glass door knobs, coved ceilings and plaster walls. A leaded glass door opens into the spacious living room where the fireplace, flanked by antique sconces, adds just the right ambience. Move into the gracious dining room which is large enough to accommodate even your largest antique pieces. In the sizeable kitchen, sunlight streams through the atrium styled skylight overhead. Reminiscent of days gone by, are the delightful cabinets complete with original hardware and pull down spice cabinets. A built-in ironing board, separate pantry and original congoleum flooring enhances the integrity of the era, however, near new appliances make meal preparation and clean up a breeze. Of course you would expect a home of this era to have a back porch and you will not be disappointed. This is where the washer and dryer are housed, cleverly hidden away from view and there is also plenty of space for a freezer if desired. There are two good sized bedrooms on this level; one with large walk-in closet. The main floor bathroom has been completely remodeled and features gorgeous tile flooring, sunken tub with custom tile work and a handsome vanity. Retire at the end of the day to the tranquil master suite which encompasses the entire top floor. Two skylights fill this private retreat with natural light and one even opens to generate air flow. Relax with a book in the sitting area or soak your cares away in the jetted tub in the spa-like ensuite bathroom. This space is wired for phone and cable so could accommodate a computer as well. The basement level with outside access has suite potential and offers a family room, cold cellar and work bench for tools. There is a toilet and shower as well as a sink area. The balance is unfinished, providing an abundance of storage. There have been many upgrades including new windows on the upper floor and basement, 2 year old roof, updated plumbing, 200 amp service and new insulation. There is gas heat and hot water as well as a gas connection for the electric fireplace. The quality and style of yesterday's home combined with the modern convenience of today's living make this a home you could live in for years to come.
