This area is full of old world charm, as is this home with 4 bedrooms and 1 and 1/2 baths. A large front porch with a swing sets off the home, the perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee, a cold drink or just a chat with friends and neighbors. Step into a small foyer, that opens into a welcoming larger foyer area, showcasing beautiful original hardwood floors and pocket doors keeping with the old world style. An office/library or sitting room, set off by stained glass windows is graced by the beauty of the open stairway to the second floor. The other side of the foyer opens into a warm living room, accented by the light coming in through the leaded glass window. A stunning dining room with a gorgeous built-in original hutch, a charming window seat and a pass through to the kitchen is ready for an elegant dinner with friends. The well appointed kitchen has ample cabinets, a new dishwasher, a walk in pantry and an entrance to the back covered porch. Up from the kitchen is a second stairway entrance leading upstairs, but with a small nook tucked away in an alcove with a desk and shelves on the way up. Upstairs are four generous size bedrooms, each with a walk in closet, plus a large full bath with whirlpool and a separate shower. Dual zone HVAC helps keep your utilities lower! A walk up attic gives many options for future additional expansion. Head down the stairs to the basement...but don't miss the absolutely cutest half bath on the way! A family room down, expansive laundry room with sink, plus an additional room for use of your choice adds additional living space. There is an abundance of storage in this charming home! Recent updates include a water heater, garage roof, and some windows. Garage is currently used for storage but has access from the alley for parking one vehicle, with a manual sliding door. It does need some updating. This home is a rare beauty that we do not come across often, don't miss the chance to make it yours!
