Charming, Updated, Move In Ready, 1926 Craftsman! If you like to sit on your porch on a tree lined street with neighbors enjoying evening walks, this is the home for you. A local source said, "The ornate beamed ceilings in the dining room and living room as well as the wood wainscot in the dining room exhibit the high quality of workmanship that appears in woodwork, doors, trim, and built in storage in the balance of the home." The warmth of wood is also seen in beautiful extra wide crown molding in the dining room and in the spindled staircase. Also look for two sets of French doors and beveled glass in sidelights and front door in this grand home. Those classic Craftsman features are in perfect balance with the modernization for today's homeowners--spacious rooms both for entertaining and for quiet times. Some period storage in cabinetry but also with large closets as well. There are cozy places to read or rest, like the large front porch or in front of your woodburning fireplace, but also bright and sunny spots such as the sunroom or the area around the large inground pool! You'll love thelook of the classic windows, but 39! (all except the kitchen, which had been previously replaced) are NEW energy efficient ones that match in color and style completely!! Be sure to see additional pictures following the Virtual Tour. The kitchen has had recent updates for efficient storage. Lots of fresh paint inside and outside, where it was scraped down to the bare cedar boards! And if this isn't enough to convince you to check out this historic home, this will...
