Built to last, this turn of the century Brick and Stucco Craftsman Bungalow boasts most of the same materials that only the Aristocrats and Debutants of yesteryear could afford. Centrally located and a short distance to Creekmore Park and the Library, the large sitting porch with tapered columns and limestone foundation block greet you at the front door. Opening to an entrance hall with its traditional wainscoting, 10 foot ceilings, solid hardwoods and plenty of wall space for the avid art collector. Doors on all sides open to a front bedroom, or the main living room with tall baseboards, picture moldings, gas fireplace and corner to corner windows. Through the formal dining room large enough for a 10-12 top, is the newly restored kitchen, complete with period correct finishes including solid walnut countertops, custom white bead board cabinets, a gas cooktop, separate wall ovens and clear-view cabinet uppers to show off those “don’t touch” collections. Just past the split staircase is a cozy reading room on your way to the corner bedroom suite that has a full bathroom with original white penny tile, vanity, soaking tub, and french doors that open up to a sitting porch. Oh, and pink, yes you’ll just love the pink half bath. Upstairs you’ll find a second floor open to a carpeted sitting area, and three wings perfect for an office space, bedroom or exercise room. Storage on one side and a full bathroom with clawfoot tub, subway tile and a vanity, you’d think it’s always been there. The basement off the kitchen is where you’ll see the new tankless water heater, laundry and all the new wiring. Then out the kitchen side door to the perfect garden porch. The backyard is private and great for play on a relaxing afternoon. So many details with this home, it has been restored to its original purposed splendor and is ready for someone to enjoy for many years to come. Call today for your private tour.
