This wonderful historic home was converted back to a single family dwelling in 2008 and has aged gracefully over the years with many updates. A new attached carport built in 2023! The front yard has a new picket fence and the back yard is completely fenced with a 6' wooden fence, perfect for pets and/or kids. Both yards are nicely landscaped with Japanese maple, Japanese cherry, 8 giant arborvitaes, 4 cypress trees, maple trees, rose of sharons, rose bushes, cannnas, elephant ears, redbud tree, hostas and more! There is a pergola in the back yard for lounging and enjoying the back yard privacy along with a fire pit. There are two driveways with loads of parking. Room for your RV so no more parking fees! Yes!
The front porch faces the north and crosses the entire front of the house with plenty of room (we have 8 wicker and rockers on the front porch) to entertain and enjoy cool afternoons in the summer. The front of the house opens to the main floor of this three-story American Craftsman home. There you will find a huge foyer or quaint living room with gas logs in a fireplace, a bedroom which can also be used as an office, sitting/living room, office or flex room, a formal dining room with pantry, kitchen nook with big windows, kitchen and a full bathroom. The kitchen was remodeled in 2010 with Bosch appliances and granite countertops. The kitchen nook has two walls of sitting benches that have wonderful storage for extra cooking appliances and such. Yes!
As you go upstairs, the middle landing has a door that opens to a deck on the west side of the house. The deck has outside stairs that lead to the parking pergola and to the back yard. The upstairs has three bedrooms, two larger ones and a smaller one. The smaller one we use as a flex room for our elliptical and stationary bike along with a flat screen TV and recliner. It even has a mini office there! Upstairs also has a wonderful southern exposure room that we use as a laundry and a multi-purpose room we use as a plant and reading area. It's wonderful! Yes! And, of course, a full bath is upstairs.
From the main level, you can go down the stairs to the lower level (some may call it the basement). At the foot of those stairs, you will find a door that leads outside to a small grill area, which is under the upstairs deck. Back inside the lower level you will find a huge entertainment area with an 8' bar and room to dance, play pool or foosball. ALSO, in the lower level, there is tiered windowless THEATER (my favorite room in the house) that has surround sound speakers, which also extend to the barroom. The lower level has a full bath with a washer & dryer hookups.
This wonderful house has three HVAC units, one for each level, which makes it easy to heat/cool for efficiency.
