Damn, i will miss showing this fun home . Someone besides the owner And I, loves this home. No further showings. So central, so inexpensive, this extremely solid tiny home is versatile. It could be used as a two unit, albeit not a registered 2 unit. It has a kitchen, bath, bed office, w/d up and down. The lower level has all that and is used for storage of equipment, materials, less organized and more rustic. It has a kitchenette, a large bath, a washer/dryer and an office with seperate entrance. This tiny home is a romantic rendition by a master craftsman. I think is crafted from a select inventory of glass, stone, steel, ceramic, concrete, plaster . Exotic Woods with names like smaller, blood wood, snake wood, braided maple. Native Stones from The mountains of Virginia and Minnesota, Black Granite, Italian Tiles, Repurposed Antiques, This Home consists of two apartments, a 'Tiny' house, with wonderful enthralling details. MGM , Disney, Gaudi and Newton (and Nicholas Cage) would stall and wail at the style. Designed and Built by Charles Gessford with permits received on 21-Aug-1893, the building is a fortress. Gessford used I-beams in the original structure built as a stable and hay storage, the stable provided support for the horse drawn carriages that stalled at the south end of the block. Car wheel bearings hold the 270 pound entry door. Synchronized bike bearings and gears open the upper kitchen dining area. I(metal eye) beams provide the base for the stone staircase to the second floor. Survivalists could feel secure from most of the SWAT vehicles immediately available, it is a solid fortress. Built ins are hidden surprising well From schooled inspection. The blending of many different metals . Glasses, and stones with technology and electricity is thrilling .Call your agent, this home offers a potential income from rent of one of the bedrooms or a comfortable hidden home near all the present power of the world.If your agent is not about, call me to see.
