    This beautiful 1893 Victorian 2-story, located in Sherman Hill, a National Historical District, blends modern amenities with old home charm. This house features original oak woodwork, beautiful hardwood floors, the original fireplace mantel with gas insert and open oak staircase with stunning classic charm! The previous owner renovated everything inside & out with quality workmanship, quality materials and simple, stylish design. When this house was renovated in 2002, it received all new plumbing, electrical, insulated walls and new double hung windows. This past fall the roof was replaced. In 2010 a two story 24x28 garage was built with a loft that has a full bath, great for working from home or possible rental income. The first floor of the garage has 12’ ceilings so there is plenty of room for overhead storage or a car lift if you a car nut. The garage also has its own furnace.

    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.
