Set high on the hill with over an acre of land this iconic home is a one of a kind in one of the most desirable sections of walk to Wayne. While built in the late 1800’s the house has tons of charm but also loaded with features today's buyers want. It has an open concept feel that was ahead of its time. The eat in kitchen has been updated with lots of counter space and stainless appliances. The dining room, family room and game room are open to each other for great flow but there are pocket doors that can provide privacy. The primary bedroom has a large walk-in closet with built ins, a beautiful full bath with double sinks and large walk-in shower and a balcony to sit and enjoy a summer night. There are 4 more bedrooms and 2 baths. One of the baths has been renovated with the convenience of an upstairs washer dryer. The third floor is great for storage. The basement is finished perfect for additional living space. The large deck with hot tub is private and overlooks a large, flat backyard. There is a newer 2 car detached garage with a second floor for storage. You cannot beat the location, the style and all of the updates this home has to offer.
