About This Home

Stepping through the arched doorway of this classic 1935 two-story brick home, you are greeted by gorgeous stained glass, rich hardwood floors, arched doorways, and exquisite period millwork that flows throughout the house. The spacious living room, featuring a handsome decorative fireplace, opens into the large formal dining room bathed with natural light. The adjacent eat-in kitchen is an inviting culinary space framed by a bay window, beautiful stained glass, and charming original tile. It comes fully equipped with custom cabinetry, a built-in microwave, gas range, dishwasher, and generous pantry. In the hall, a cozy half bathroom retains its original tile and stained glass. A striking spiral staircase with iron banisters leads to the upper level, offering three generous bedrooms and a full bathroom that retains its original tile and stained-glass details. One of the bedrooms boasts a unique greenhouse window and has been transformed into an expansive custom walk-in closet. This space can easily be converted back to a standard bedroom prior to move-in at the tenant's request. A second bedroom currently accommodates a king-sized bed, which may also be removed upon request to suit your needs. Downstairs, the partially finished lower level provides a versatile recreation and family room, anchored by a second decorative fireplace and accented by its own stained-glass windows. Adjacent are a dedicated laundry area and convenient half bathroom. The outdoor space features a level, fully fenced backyard, complete with a custom raised garden bed. A detached two-car brick garage plus additional off-street space provides ample parking.
