Property Description
Beautiful Victorian home on 4.49 acres with mature trees, and flower beds. This special property gives you that secluded feeling but still near town and on a major highway! This Victorian home has 4 BDR's, and 1.5 baths. There is an updated kitchen with a built-in banquette seating area, an island, and an original butler's pantry. The spacious dining room has 2 still relevant features for today's entertaining! 1)built in China hutch original to the home, and 2) a dumbwaiter that can bring food up from the basement cooked with an extra range in the basement if you want. The living room has a big bay window, a non-working fireplace with the original carved marble fireplace surround, and a handmade built-in bookshelf echoing the curve of the enormous arched doors going into the parlor, added by a family member of one of the owners. From the parlor with its wood burning fireplace, you can enter the study with floor to ceiling shelves for your books and memorabilia, and a half bath. This home, like many of its era, has 2 staircases, the more formal of the 2 is at the front of the home, where the front entry was heavily used when buggies would pull up and let riders out. Upstairs there are 4 BDR's, with the smallest most likely having been a maid's room as it is closest to the back stairs and kitchen. There is also a full bath shared by all the bedrooms. The home has original millwork with some of it having been masterfully grain painted. This home has replacement windows (2 yrs. old), newer roof (4 yrs. old), GFA furnace (2010), 125 ft well (20 yrs.), septic (5 yrs.), well pressure tank (10 yrs.) When you want to take in the evening stroll out onto the expansive front porch and take in the views!! Or take a walk on your own 4.49 acres and enjoy your solitude. There is also a detached garage(20x18) with a long workbench; behind this is the inground swimming pool!!! Selling "AS-IS"
