Here it is...the perfect blend of old world charm, plentiful updates, and the convenience of a sought after location near shopping, commuter line, restaurants and schools. The leaded glass window on the staircase hints at the quality of the home which was once a two family dwelling. This second floor unit is filled with sunlight and pretty views from a lovely sitting porch. There is a brick fireplace in the living room surrounded by bookshelves enhanced by leaded glass doors. A separate dining room enjoys a built in china cabinet with glass doors and drawers! This room leads through a handy pantry area on your way to the cheery kitchen which has young appliances and bright white cabinetry. There are two bedrooms and a full bath, gleaming hardwood floors, and full basement access with fantastic shelving for ample, private storage. In addition, this property has a detached garage with extra parking and a level, well-landscaped yard.
