About This Home

One of the east side's most iconic homes can be yours! This classic Victorian saw extensive renovations and won a historic preservation award in 2012. Original touches like high ceilings, large windows, built-ins, front doorbell, and elaborate woodwork connect you with the past, while modern features like granite counters, upscale stainless appliances, stylish updated bathrooms, and newer systems--including radiant heated floors in the kitchen & water filtration--let you live comfortably in the present. The kitchen includes an island so your friends can hang out with a glass of Pinot while you stir the risotto, and direct access to a covered porch and the large back yard. A gas fireplace and multiple built-ins give the dining room an air of elegance, and the front living room is flooded with light from two large bay windows. There's also a large family room that looks out onto the covered front porch, which is big enough for outdoor furniture and for neighbors to join you for some good old-fashioned conversation. The first floor also offers a convenient half bath and organized laundry space. Follow the grand stairs up to the sun-drenched primary bedroom with walk-in closet, and use the other 4 bedrooms however you wish--bedrooms, offices, sewing room, &c. You also get a two-story carriage house, which was structurally reinforced and is ready for your ideas. You're close to Derryfield Park & Wagner Park and have quick and easy access to highways and downtown. This is the one!
