This Italianate is a real example of living history. Many of the original features have been preserved while significant improvements and upgrades have been made. The traditional "4 square" design has been enhanced by the addition of a rear wing. Large windows bring in abundant amounts of natural light which accentuates many of the architectural details of the home, including the high ceilings, wood floors, moldings, built-ins and the double sided fireplace. The rear wing of the house includes an updated kitchen that is in keeping with the character and charm of the home, while providing all the modern conveniences. The versatile floorplan includes a second floor suite which could be used for an in-law/guest space or a wonderful home office with its own private entrance. The yard has extensive plantings, room for a garden, barn and a lovely wrap around porch for enjoying those beautiful summer evenings. All this just minutes to downtown, shopping and the colleges.
