Oh, what a charmer this home is, overlooking the portage canal on the part of Water Street with only 4 homes. If you like hardwood floors, 5 panel solid wood doors with glass door knobs and large high ceiling rooms this is for you. You will also get some retro touches thrown in. Enter through the enclosed front porch go left to the huge high dining room with charming corner built in. The kitchen is bright and sunny as you pass through the kitchen notice the great pantry beyond. The hallway along back of home has a small bedroom/office with closet and full bath. The parlor (family room) and living room are on the west side of the home. Views from the living room and dining room are spectacular. The second story features 3 bedrooms, all with hardwood floors and closets. The bedroom on the east side is huge with triple closets. There is a unique alcove overlooking the canal that the former owner used for a painting studio. Several closets are scattered through both floors. The basement is very handy storage space and holds the washer and dryer. The one car detached garage is at the end of the paved driveway and has storage space above. The yard is large but not too large with a sugar plum tree in front yard. Don't be fooled by the look of the home from the front- this is slightly over 2500 sq. feet.
