Prepare to be impressed by this majestic Queen Anne Victorian mansion built in 1893. Brimming with vintage charm and tasteful modern updates, the masterful restoration of this home spanning more than twenty years is now ready for its next steward. The home stands on a double lot just 1 1/2 blocks from the beach. An ideal floor plan offers an expansive living and dining space leading to the kitchen, which features custom concrete countertops, stainless steel appliances, and plentiful cabinetry. This home offers flexibility for multitudes - including a comfortable work-from-home situation while still affording space and privacy for several of your beloved out-of-town guests. The second floor features an impressive primary en suite bedroom with dual vanities and spa tub, as well as a full walk-in closet built for two. You'll find two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom on this level. The third floor features two bedrooms, two full bathrooms (one en suite) and a spacious living area that practically functions as its own apartment. While enjoying the plentiful outdoor space, you could swing on the front porch under beautiful magnolia trees, or grill out in the private back yard complete with a deck, lush flowers and vines, and mature garden. For chillier nights, there are 2 wood-burning fireplaces to cozy up to. All the electrical and plumbing has been updated; 3 furnaces, 2 AC units and all appliances replaced in 2020, and 55 windows have been replaced. Enjoy a new 2-car garage with adjacent parking pad totaling space for up to 4 cars. Basement has been sealed and drain tiled this summer for your peace of mind and comes with a fully transferable lifetime warranty and whole house basement dehumidifier/air purification system. The craftsmanship in this home is priceless and could not be built for this price today.
