Agent Description

Step into timeless elegance with this exquisitely preserved and lovingly maintained 4-bedroom, 3-bath Queen Anne Victorian-era home, built in 1904. A true architectural gem, this home showcases the extraordinary craftsmanship of a bygone era—from hand-carved woodwork and intricate oak trim to built-in bookcases, vintage light fixtures, and a stunning collection of stained-glass windows.

Period-appropriate wallpaper, a grand open staircase, and an elegant marble fireplace evoke the charm and grace of the early 20th century—every corner of the home is designed to impress. The main floor welcomes you with a magnificent foyer and flows into a spacious living room, connected to a cozy parlor.

Entertain in the formal dining room, serve with ease from the Butler’s pantry, and enjoy cooking in the well-appointed kitchen with island. A convenient powder room completes the main level. Up the stately open staircase (or you can sneak up the Butler’s staircase off the pantry) the second floor offers four generous bedrooms all on one level.

The primary bedroom includes an attached sitting room, perfect for a reading nook, dressing room, or private retreat. The full bathroom is a showpiece of the era, featuring a classic clawfoot tub with shower, pristine tile floor, and even a rare vintage electric hand dryer.

The finished and heated third-floor bonus space provides incredible flexibility— ideal as a family room, creative studio, office, or perhaps a future primary bedroom suite with space to add an ensuite bath via the attic (currently used for storage). Downstairs, the basement includes a laundry area, ample storage, a 1/4 bath, and updated mechanicals

, including a modern combination boiler/water heater and an electrical service panel with circuit breakers. Outdoors, a large backyard awaits your personal touch—perfect for gardening, entertaining, or simply relaxing. You will appreciate having two off-street parking spaces on the asphalt driveway accessible from East 1st Street.
