Stately 4 bedroom historic home on sought after Cliff Road. Owners of 30 years have decided it's time to down size and have priced to sell! Priced $230,000 below county tax assessment!! Built in 1911, this tudor style features extra tall ceilings and spacious rooms. First floors ceilings are approx. 11 feet and second floor is approx 9 feet high. The main level laundry is huge and the updated kitchen features granite countertops. So many original features are still intact and in excellent condition! Built in china cabinets, butlers pantry, three fireplaces with beautiful mantles, hardwood and tile floors, grand staircase, and 3 car garage apartment are just some of the many wonderful value add items in this home. Sitting room or study upstairs with city view, and lots of built in linen storage too. Very nice patio area and lot extends all the way to Altamont Road according to seller. Great price for a 4 bedroom move in ready Forest Park home. Perfectly maintained & Mr. Clean lives here.
