Elegant and timeless, this circa 1894 Victorian cottage has been exquisitely reimagined into a sophisticated home. Sitting on an extra-deep 150-foot lot and overlooking a tranquil neighborhood pocket park, this residence is ideally situated between State and Eleonore Streets, just blocks from Magazine Street and Audubon Park. All on one level, the home features high ceilings and heart pine floors, adding to its historic charm.
The property includes double parlor-style formal living and dining rooms, and a lovely kitchen with classic marble counters, island with built-in butcher block, high end stainless steel appliances and two pantries. The huge den with built-ins overlooks the covered back porch and yard, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. The primary suite is generously sized, with a gigantic walk-in closet and a spacious bathroom. An ensuite guest bedroom offers flexibility and could double as an office. Additional features include a large laundry room and a separate powder room. Move right in or update to suit your needs. A rare gem, this home must be seen to be fully appreciated.
