The best of all worlds! A beautiful antique colonial with all the charm of yesterday but recently updated for today's needs. Located in the historic Pleasant/High/Library district, this home is tucked away on a quiet side street in a neighborhood filled with equally charming houses, yet close to everything: down town, The Loop, and highway access. This spacious home has room for everyone in the family. Large rooms are great entertainment and living spaces. Updated amenities include: a newer maple/stainless kitchen with island and french doors to a stone patio, new bathrooms, a brand new roof, gleaming hardwood floors, new wall to wall carpeting, and fresh paint inside and out. Not to mention the convenience of a second floor laundry room. There is also an unfinished third floor walk-up attic that could be perfect as additional living space. This is a truly unique home with a great flow that has been professionally updated and decorated. Sure to enchant all!
