The finest home offering in the Cathedral Area and part of CAPA (Cathedral Area Preservation Association). This 1913 -three story home is anything but - cookie cutter! An expansive and elevated front porch announces a grand entry to the foyer of this 2100 square foot historical home. The showcase of pristine original millwork is guaranteed to thrill and includes: refinished hardwood flooring, thick crown moulding, baseboards, casings, coffered ceilings - not to mention solid oak doors throughout. The main living room is testament to these finishes and offers a showstopper fireplace mantel that is over 100 years old, itself! The kitchen has many updates and features, such as: a butlers pantry, table space, farmers sink, stained glass accents and the homes secondary staircase to upper levels. There is an inviting dining room just waiting for your Thanksgiving & holiday gatherings, for years to come - or...the kids play area/office area for you more modern minded people. Either way, its a room you want to spend time in! Usually, foyers are not highlighted in descriptions, but this foyer is stunning and is home to a most stunning primary staircase leading you to 4 bedrooms (one of which has private elevated porch access overlooking back yard) and a remodeled full bath on the 2nd floor. Open hallway & all bedrooms have hardwood flooring and here is where you will discover, yet another one of this homes surprises...a 3rd floor entry to a multi-purpose room (workout area, theatre/game room, quiet study getaway, or hiding holiday gifts from the big jolly guy in the red suit-HO HO HO). Behind a built-in is a hinged swinging bookcase to a hidden space, currently used for additional storage, but has endless possibilities! Other features that round out this one of a kind home include an enclosed mud room between the back yard & kitchen, a fenced yard & large deck with firepit provision and a large heated 1.5 car garage, with alley access. Finally, the basement is partially finished, with another full bath, loads of room for laundry & additional finished space, for whatever...to find a home with 2 or 3 of these appointments is special and to find a home like this one, with so many is extraordinary, especially given it's superb condition!

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.
