    Stunning Victorian charmer built during the country's centennial in 1876. Features include five bedrooms, 3.5 baths, three finished levels of spacious rooms with hardwood floors, ornate woodwork, and a large and inviting modern kitchen and updated baths. Currently the upstairs is being used as a short-term rental, so the main level and 2nd/3rd floors are divided by an easily-removed door if a single home is desired. Or continue this solid, classic home as an income-producing duplex. Furnishings can stay! The home has a porch, a portico built for carriages, a 2-car garage, zoned heating and cooling, including a brand new central air unit, a fenced back yard, sprawling corner lot, mature trees and landscaping, and the distinction of being in a designated historic neighborhood centrally located and featuring a brick street and period street lights.
