OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY 1/14/18 from 2-4 p.m. **SELLER REDUCED PRICE.**Looking for a home with character and charm? This is the house you've been dreaming of. The owner is an architect who both designed and built this transformative renovation. The 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home was originally built in 1915. After a century, this house has been completely updated and ready to be called "home" for another hundred years. The open floor plan connects the living room, dining room, and kitchen into one great space with reclaimed columns and beams brought in from an old barn. The flooring in this open space is reclaimed lumber salvaged from the old wooden bleachers once installed at local elementary schooll. The living room has a rebuilt fire place with a modern electric fireplace with remote control. The ceilings in the dining room and kitchen have exposed ceiling joists. Kitchen has an exposed brick chimney, new kitchen cabinets, and concrete countertops wrapping around the kitchen all the way to the built in bar/seating area. Stainless steel sink and matching stainless steel dishwasher, gas range, and refrigerator all go with the house. Refrigerator is built into a custom pantry. Both bathrooms have new fixtures, vanities, and tile. The 4 bedrooms have new plush carpet. Huge porch and interior staircase both have custom metal fabricated railings. The loft at the top of the stairs is a perfect place to have some comfy furniture or desks to hang out or work. Home has been freshly painted inside and out. Words don't describe what a hard to find gem this is... and these are just the things you can see. The home also has new plumbing as required for the renovation. New 200 amp electrical service, breaker panel, and wiring throughout the home. All lighting has been upgraded including 3 custom light fixtures. The HVAC has been upgraded with 2 new units and new ductwork. There is a new Trane unit for each level of the house. Nothing stops a Trane and you don't need to worry about sleepless nights on a hot and stuffy 85 degree second floor while the main level is a comfy 70 degrees! Charming in every way, this unique home located on a quiet street is a definite MUST SEE!
