This 1911 Victorian-style charmer exudes the grace and character of a bygone era, nestled in a walk-to-everything Lincoln-Hubbard Elementary School neighborhood, adorned with an idyllic covered summer “rocking chair” porch that spans its façade. There are 9 ft-high ceilings on the first floor with generous crown moldings, hardwood floors, original five-panel doors and oversized windows that enhance the home’s vintage appeal while offering excellent 21st-century expansion possibilities for the homebuyer seeking both a wise investment and suburban lifestyle. A center hall is flanked by a bright living room with oversized bay windows and a fireside study with a wall of built-ins. The formal dining room with a similar bay window flows off the living room into the country-style kitchen that enjoys views of the deep rear yard. A powder room is located nearby. The second floor is host to four sunlit bedrooms, each with views on two sides and high ceilings (the master bedroom enjoys a lovely bay window) and a full hall bath with tub shower that serves them. A fifth bedroom resides privately on the third floor along with a large full bath and tub shower, offering added versatility. Two spacious walk-in attic rooms offer additional options for the creative homebuyer, if desired, as does the unfinished lower level, complete with high ceilings, laundry, new commode and new exterior storm door. A two-car detached garage at the end of the gravel drive completes the picture. With its wonderful neighborhood setting, this Victorian gem can truly be a special place to call home.
