Description

Rare find describes this meticulously maintained Art Deco era beauty that has a long list of improvements and rare features that make it a truly one-of-a-kind home that doesn’t come along very often! A remodeled kitchen large enough for an island with seating, under cabinet and task lighting, loads of counter space, and a large pantry installation; stunning Art Deco patterned stained glass windows; a 3-car garage that is nearly a 4-car in square footage; a lower level with a poured foundation that has a finished family room space; a drop zone/mudroom landing and closet space not usually found in a home of this vintage; immense amounts of built-in shelving and cabinetry; a screened porch; a main floor office space that could be converted to a main floor bath or bath/laundry combo quite reasonably, if so desired; 5 bedrooms, some of which could be used for a walk-in closet or office spaces; 2 full baths; new roof (2020 after Derecho Storm); new furnace (2022); new a/c (2022); a walk-up attic with plenty of headroom to finish even more space or to use for storage; and so much more. All kitchen and laundry appliances included. Come see the quality, the beauty, and the function for yourself while you still can!
