Once in while a piece of history comes available, that is the case with 2938 CHEW ST in the Cedar Bluffs section of West End. Owned by the same family since completion in 1922 it speaks to the grandeur of the era. The entry foyer hints at what awaits as you tour each room. To the left of the foyer a private library with paneled walls, and french doors opening to the formal dining room, while to the right a magnificent liv room with fireplace, note the dentil molding and beautifully detailed ceilings. Then of course venture out to the first of two covered porches that run the length of the home. Butlers pantry features the original cabinetry, the kitchen has had an update offering plenty of upgrades and walk in pantry. The solarium with its' tiled floors doubles as the breakfast room. Upstairs find five or six bedrooms, including the master, 2 full baths, open foyer and home office while the 3rd floor has 3 more bedrooms and full bath, perfect for extended family or guest quarters.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
