Exquisite 1901 Victorian home with garden areas and a 2-car garage! Original hardwoods, stunning iron and tile fireplace with elaborate mantle, leaded and stained glass, pocket doors, sunroom with gas stove, built-in china cabinet, and a private master suite with a luxurious bath all showcase this turn-of-the-century home.

Warm hardwood floors flow through the formal dining, living, and sitting areas, and colorful stained glass panels grace windows and doors. The living area centers on a stunning wood-burning fireplace with a cast iron frame surrounded by colorful tiles, and an elaborate mantle with mirror. A large bay window, built-in glass china cabinet and Victorian-era chandeliers with ceiling medallions honor the history of the home.

The spacious kitchen offers 2 separate food preparation areas with ample cabinetry, classic wainscoting, tile backsplash, and a pantry large enough for a stainless side-by-side refrigerator. The bright sunroom off the kitchen boasts a cast iron gas stove, and offers an informal gathering space and eating nook overlooking the rear yard and garden areas.

A private staircase leads to the upper level master suite with a cozy sitting area, window alcoves, wallpapered ceiling and large closets. The luxurious attached master bath boasts a claw-foot tub, pedestal sink, chair rail, and 2 oversized windows for natural light. A finished lower level has a 4th bedroom and family/media room with built-in shelving.

Blossoming pear trees, lilacs, and rose bushes fill the fenced rear yard, which has easy access to the 2-car garage. One garage bay has been converted to a workshop, and can be changed back if desired.

The tranquil covered front porch is perfect for enjoying the tree-shaded neighborhood, and parks with walking trails are just steps away.
