Property Description
This 1930s era home has been carefully restored and modernized. There are many really cool features. In the family room there is a wood burning fireplace flanked by the original stained glass windows. The ceiling is a plastered, patterned piece of art. The dining room features a bay window overlooking the large, landscaped yard. The kitchen has been modernized with all stainless steel appliances combined with some of the original features. Bedrooms are good sizes and the bathroom has both a tub and an original-tiled shower. The third floor is a fully conditioned attic area set up as a very large bedroom with a walk-in cedar lined closet. There is plenty of storage space in the knee walls. There are original, refinished wood floors throughout the home. The basement was cleaned out and walls painted/sealed and the floor epoxy sealed making the space very usable. The back yard is a wonderful oasis, especially in a city environment. It is a large space with mature beds of perennials, including Crocus, Daffodils, Hyacinth, Tulips, Hostas, Azaleas, Peonies, Rhododendrons, Roses of Sharon and Sunflowers. Something is blooming every 2-3 weeks! Mechanicals are all in good shape making this a true move-in condition home. The home has had many improvements. Please review the improvements list that is attached. Seller is a Pennsylvania licensed real estate salesperson.
