Enjoy the quiet privacy of this majestic Victorian home deep inside the cozy confines of Historic Woodlawn Ave, a charming Eastside time capsule just minutes from downtown and the university. A veritable treasure trove of historic architecture, this home has many sweet details including custom tilework, stained glass transom, a bunny faucet, and hand carved wood details. Wonderful original woodwork runs through the house with hardwood floors, wood burning fireplace and amazing pocket doors. One of a kind built-in cabinets and desk space in the den that opens to the bright large addition on the back of the house with floor to ceiling windows. This space could be used in so many ways. The full unfinished basement has high ceilings that provide a ton of storage and a room that was once used as a dark room. Don't miss the house's most delightful surprise: a former cistern turned wine cellar that has to be experienced to be believed. The vaulted brick passageway travels down another flight of stairs to a soaring, old world wine cellar straight out of an oenophile's dreams. Back above ground, a screened in porch, private deck, fully fenced yard with detached two car garage off the private alley and a historic chicken coop with a fun Irving Weber connection complete the scene for this historic home. The addition off of the two car garage once held a large kiln, which now serves as a great flex space or additional storage.
