About this home

Fantastic opportunity for a homeowner or developer! Originally built as a two-family and now enjoyed as a spacious single-family, this handsome 10-room home offers five bedrooms, two full baths, and a blend of practical and tasteful updates. Numerous original details, including glass doorknobs, picture rails, decorative columns, and china cabinets, enhance the character. Breezy flow with 9 ft ceilings, oak floors, central hallways, and an open staircase accented by stained-glass windows. Renovated kitchen features custom cherry cabinets, decorative tile, and high-end appliances, including a Miele dual-fuel six-burner range. Updated bathrooms (2005, 2007), a bonus three-season porch (2009), gas boilers (2003, 2018), HW tank (2025), rebuilt front porch (2020), and 20-panel rooftop solar array (2021). Spacious fenced yard with level lawn, custom brick path, patio, organic soil, and irrigation system. Considerable potential for expansion in full walk-up attic, basement, or yard. Must see!
