Description
This property is not currently for sale or for rent on Trulia. The description and property data below may have been provided by a third party, the homeowner or public records.
Situated pleasingly on a corner lot is a 4-fireplace, 5 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home that has the homey feel of an old-fashioned private club. Oodles of wood trim, parquet floors, pocket doors, leaded glass, a grand old Garland stove and decorative flourishes throughout give it the warmth and authenticity that remodels can't touch. It all starts with a sweet circular front walkway that surrounds a stunning mature flowering cherry tree and leads to a wrap around porch to die for. The entry foyer fireplace surround is decoratively carved, there are two front parlors accessed through two sets of glass double doors and a wood paneled dining, each of these rooms has a fireplace with the original tile and surround. The galley kitchen stretches the width of the house and at one end is a sunny dining nook. Up a stunning carved staircase flooded with light are two large bedrooms, a laundry room that could be converted to another bedroom, all with deep closets, including one with a hidden safe, a full bath and a large landing. Up a curved staircase to the third floor there are two more large bedrooms with generous closet space, a sunny flex room that could also be converted to another bedroom, and a full bath. There is an unfinished basement that served as the owner's wood shop for decades. The exterior is cedar shakes accented with Tudor half-Timber and stucco dormers. The rear yard is spacious, sunny and very private. A private driveway and garage are accessed from Church Avenue. This property, nestled in the landmarked Prospect Park South neighborhood, is a rare diamond in the rough. Bring your architect or contractor and be the smart buyer to realize all its potential.
