For those who appreciate timeless beauty...this 1923 vintage home is for You! The owners removed the old 60's overlays from top to bottom adding updated wiring, plumbing, windows & restoring the high ceilings. They lovingly created the feel of the original brick home with custom mantles, FP surrounds, custom carpet and more, reflecting the original appeal of that era. Then they added on to the original brick dwelling, bringing the size from 1303 to 1764 sf. Enjoy the landscaped half acre corner lot in an established comfortable neighborhood. This rare property speaks with the heart and soul of a simpler time. Your refuge is ready! Hurry home, I'm waiting for You!
