## Description

### Agent Description
This house was built Charles Eckhart who founded the Eckhart Carriage Company, which he turned over to his sons, who started manufacturing automobiles in 1900, and their company became the Auburn Automobile Company. This house was also previously owned by John Foley, a mayor of Auburn. The house is a brownstone and stucco combination, with plaster interior walls and two gas fireplaces with marble mantles. The brownstone and exterior fireplaces were tuck-pointed and re-plastered in 2021. Subject’s kitchen was remodeled in 2021, with original cabinets from house reconfigured and painted, with new quartz counter tops, marble backsplash, and appliances. New walk-in pantry and mud room were also added. Primary bathroom was also remodeled in 2021, with all new fixtures and flooring. Entire first floor of house had new luxury vinyl plank flooring installed in 2021, along with new windows on the north side of the house. Half bath was remodeled with new vanity and stool in 2015. Roof and furnace were both replaced in 2009. Second floor full bathroom has new luxury vinyl plank flooring in 2022. Four upstairs bedrooms have original hardwood floors, as does den.
