South of Cary St. in Hillcrest. What a pretty & desirable neighborhood full of outstanding architecture. This classic oversized Williamsburg cape sits on more than a half acre of peaceful, wooded land. Built by "old school" craftsman in the '30s & it shows with pretty hardwood floors, crafted wood moldings & detailing, tall ceilings, two fireplaces & more. Current owner has eliminated lots of questions by completing an extensive list of replacement work on the "infrastructure" systems. (Note the list of recent owner improvements attached) So, that leaves an amazing blank canvas for the next owner to create their own interior masterpiece. This home has lots to offer with 4 bedrooms & 4 full baths & includes a spacious 1st floor primary suite. A 2nd bedroom on the main floor can be a perfect spot for an office overlooking the rear woods & creek. Upstairs 2 more bedrooms share a full bath. A HIGHLIGHT is the "chalet like" family room addition built by Steeber & Sons featuring built-in bookcases, beautiful picture window view of creek & forested side yard. A detached garage has space for 2 cars, a work shop & lofted storage. Ready for your style and grace. Come see!
