Description
Classic Historic Charmer in Olde Towne East
PRICE IMPROVEMENT!
Step into timeless elegance with this spacious, three-story historic home in the heart of the distinguished Olde Towne East neighborhood. Rich in character, the home showcases original, unpainted woodwork throughout all three levels—preserving its classic charm while offering modern updates.
With five decorative fireplaces, three chimneys, and two staircases, this home exudes period charm. The refinished third floor (2016) offers incredible versatility, featuring a full bathroom with heated floors, walk-in shower, kitchenette, separate electrical panel, and window A/C unit—perfect for a guest suite, home office, or apartment-style living.
Enjoy peace of mind with recent mechanical updates, including a new HVAC system (2023) and an upgraded electric panel. Most triple-pane windows were replaced in 2018, enhancing energy efficiency and comfort. The roof was replaced in 2009, and the leased water heater adds affordable utility convenience.
Additional highlights include:
2nd floor laundry with washer and dryer included
2nd floor balcony for morning coffee or evening breezes
Large linen closet for added storage
Exterior basement entry (Dorothy door)
Detached 2-car garage
Beautiful backyard pond
Located in a vibrant, close-knit community with an active neighborhood association, residents enjoy events like a home tour, community yard sale, Music in the Garden, and holiday festivities.
This one-of-a-kind home is full of history, space, and potential—ready to be loved by its next owner.
