Property Description

This 1916 gem is full of charm and character. Set on a street among many turn of the century beauties, it has its own share of architectural details that set off its style. The large porch and beveled glass door convey a grand welcoming tone. There are beautiful, newly-refinished hardwood floors in the foyer, living room and dining room. A giant picture window frames the palm trees and the Victorian house across the street, and a large domed brick fireplace warms the space. Through pocket doors is the formal dining room - boxed ceilings, wainscoting with plate rails and a spectacular built-in buffet accented with leaded glass diamond-patterned doors - all offer a glimpse of another time. The kitchen is large and bright, it has space to move, and lots of storage, including a separate pantry. A full bathroom is located down the hall and a den or media room is nearby. A sun porch accesses the huge basement, which can have a number of uses. Plenty of off street parking and easy commuting.
