This once grand Victorian has fallen on tough times. With some love and hard work, she could shine again! Hardwood floors with different inlaid designs in every room. Columns between foyer and parlor. Deacons bench and spindled staircase complete the once stunning foyer. Two of the bedrooms on the second floor have been opened up to create a suite. The huge finished third floor is completely finished in bead-board (and was stunning when it was natural!) The furnace and roof are newer and the electric was updated some time ago.
