Property Description
This stunning 1914 historic home offers over 3,400 finished sq ft and is truly one of a kind. From the moment you step inside, you’re transported back in time with original tile, rich timeless woodwork, beveled glass windows, and a grand circular foyer with an upper rotunda supported by oak columns. The sellers have meticulously preserved the home’s character and architectural integrity, even updating the electrical while maintaining push-button switches and original antique light fixtures throughout—blending modern functionality with historic charm. Main level features spacious living, formal dining, office/library, sunroom, and ½ bath, all highlighted by 10’ ceilings, detailed moldings, solid wood doors, and craftsmanship rarely found today. Upstairs offers 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, built-ins, and a screened-in porch with views overlooking Glidden, creating a peaceful space to relax and unwind. Lower level includes 2 non-conforming bedrooms, full bath, second kitchen, and private entrance—ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or rental income potential. Situated on 3 parcels, the multi-tiered backyard and patio spaces create an Italian villa-style setting with mature landscaping, stonework, and inviting gathering areas perfect for entertaining, hosting events, or enjoying quiet evenings. Large alley-access building offers 5 garage bays, office, storage, recreation space, and ½ bath. A rare opportunity for a primary residence, bed & breakfast, or event venue
