Gleaming Hardwood floors, Anderson Architectural- double pane windows, 400 Series, (NOT Vinyl), Full View storm doors, 9.6” high ceilings (on the 1st floor), period moldings, the original staircase, balusters, & 4 panel doors really set off the 1885 time period for this elegant home! The spacious Living Room features a Gas Fireplace… (could be converted back to wood burning), recessed LED lighting & Ceiling Fan. (All 6 of the ceiling fans are classic Hunter brand) The handsome updated Kitchen has been opened to the Dining Room & features Granite Counter Tops, Breakfast Bar, deep S/S Sink with Goose Neck Faucet, S/S Appliances, (Gas Cooking), Glass Tile Back Splash, with under counter LED lighting, Beaded Pine Wood Ceiling with recessed dimmable LED lighting & Ceiling Fan.

Upstairs you will find a vaulted ceiling at the top of the staircase with a Velux Skylight & exposed ceiling rafters.

The restored original Victorian doors boasts porcelain door knobs & hardware along with transoms for extra light and air movement. From here you will find 3 graciously sized Bedrooms, each with added expanded closets, ceiling fans & more gleaming hardwood floors. The airy primary Bedroom was created from opening 2 bedrooms to make 1 suite & features a Velux Skylight with a raised ceiling detail, adding interesting lighting to the room throughout the day, built-in shelving and double closet with mirrored bi-fold doors along with a custom vintage styled Ironing Board cabinet. The Full Bath was completely gutted & redesigned. High quality craftsmanship was implemented using cement board behind the tile & a waterproofing sealant.

Weil McClain Gas Boiler, Bradford White Gas Water Heater. The 3 Window A/C units cool this home very well! (We used only 1 in the front bedroom & 1 in the back bedroom with VERY good results.
