Bicentennially born brick beauty sits on a corner lot in prime in-town location // Original owner kept up with the house meticulously for its entire 50-year history, and made some updates over the decades // This owner-custom designed floor plan was ahead of its time, including an eat-in kitchen with bar area, indoor separate laundry room, and massive primary suite with two huge walk-in closets, a linen closet and a larger bathroom // Unless you love grass green carpet and 1990’s kitchen wallpaper, you will want to do some cosmetic updates, but you can move right in and live quite comfortably while you figure out how you want to customize it over the next 50 years // The circa 1976 metallic wallpaper in the hall bath is preserved so well, you can almost hear disco music // The brick hearth wood burning fireplace in the sunken living room is flooded with light from the wall of glass doors overlooking the fenced backyard // Surprisingly large amount of storage throughout, including a proper kitchen pantry, two hall closets and a walk-in closet in one of the secondary bedrooms // Back deck with recently updated with lots of new deck boards and railing // No HOA // 2017 roof, 2007 HVAC, unknown electric water heater age // Located in the heart of the medical district, enjoy a very short drive to both major hospitals and a seven minute drive to downtown
