Sunlight playing across high ceilings and an open -- but not too open -- floor plan are just two of the things that make this 19th century townhouse so appealing. Extensive mouldings, burnished floors and original mantles pay homage to the past while a modern garage, primary bedroom suite, and huge kitchen-family room space speak to contemporary tastes. The southwest facing front facade is dominated by a three-sided bay and conical roof while in the rear there is a fenced garden and terrace for coffee in the morning light. In an interesting footnote during this work-from-home period -- and this house has a great office -- between 1881 and 1887 the property was occupied by James F. Gunn who owned a lumber company at 2200 East Main St. and undoubtedly walked or rode down the hill to his place of business. This house is just blocks from some of the city's best bakeries and restaurants and only five minutes from either I-95, the Capitol Trail or downtown.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
