Every room in this home is so bright. Ideal for those who love natural light, original hardwood floors and high ceilings throughout, detailed woodwork, leaded glass, an "elegantly carved stairway, seen through pocket doors," restored original and period light fixtures, a spectacular fa ade, and a new, spacious high-end chef's eat-in kitchen. 2 fireplaces. Spacious, comfortable front porch, perfect for hanging out, with steps down to a built-in "lovers' bench" and front & side garden. Back patio (or 2 car parking-or easy street parking available). Prolific cherry tree for awesome pies. Just idyllic. A great home in a great location.
