This lovely two story home sits on a large corner lot and has been registered as a historic home. It is currently divided into 3 separate living apartments but could quite easily be transformed back into one grand single family home! Charming curb appeal greets you first with a well designed home offering an enclosed front porch with interior entry. There is another entrance around the corner that opens into the main foyer with a grand staircase. Outside, this home has a maintenance free exterior. The soft green siding compliments all the white trim around the windows. An over sized two car garage is attached to the home via a covered outdoor patio. There is an extra wide driveway allowing for ample parking and this heated garage provides plenty of space for both cars and storage. If you enter through the enclosed porch, you will be greeted into a comfortably sized family room with a natural wood burning or gas start fireplace. The fireplace has a brick surround and concrete mantel. The walls are paneled and there is a lighted ceiling fan. A large pocket door slides open to reveal a full bath with shower. There is a spacious dining room with wood laminate floor and two large windows. All the original woodwork adds charm and retains the historic nature of the home. There is also a built in display cabinet with glass doors. Another original massive pocket door seals the dining room from the main foyer with staircase up to the second level. There is a comfortable updated eat-in kitchen with plenty of storage cabinets and a vinyl floor. The rear kitchen doors leads to the covered backyard patio which in turn leads to the garage. This is a great spot to barbecue.
If you enter on the other side of the home you are greeted into a tiled foyer with a grand wood winding staircase. All the ornate woodwork in the banister is quite lovely and acts as a very nice focal point.
