    Looking for a fabulous prestigious home on Lake Avenue? This one has been lovingly updated to include everything you're looking for. Currently available as a short-term rental, it would make a fantastic primary residence as well. From the newer kitchen, bathrooms, upstairs laundry and a primary bedroom with a spa-like bath, you will not be disappointed. The front porch includes enough space for entertaining and views to the lake just 1.5 blocks away. The front door brings you into the large foyer that includes a beautiful fireplace area as well as a stunning open staircase. The front living room could be a formal space, home office or music room. Open the pocket doors to the second living room that is flooded with natural light pouring through large south-facing windows. This space also connects to both the dining room and the recently remodeled kitchen. The dining room features gorgeous windows as well as a built-in hutch. Rounding off the main floor is a convenient half bath and a door leading out to the large backyard and two-car garage. Head upstairs by taking the formal staircase or the secret winding staircase off the kitchen. Once there, you will find a primary bedroom with abundant windows, its own private custom bath slathered in tile as well as a large walk-in closet. Down the hall you will find two additional bedrooms, a generous laundry room as well as another custom designed bathroom with separate shower and claw-foot tub. All these improvements look right at home while seamlessly integrating with the original historic charm. Lovingly cared for and improved to last another 100 years, this home is gorgeous and in move-in ready condition. Continue using the home as a very profitable Airbnb investment, or as your own dream home. The choice is yours.
