This architectural gem is right out of a storybook with a porte-cochere and beautiful oak trees. Inside you'll be greeted by an impressive living room with absolutely stunning millwork that is carried into the dining room with ornate built-ins. Double French doors lead to a large deck overlooking the nearly half acre lot. Two cozy gas fireplaces on the first floor. An abundance of windows blanket the home in warm, natural light. The family room features a wet bar and even more built-ins. The modest kitchen is your opportunity to design the space you've been dreaming of. An elegant staircase with wainscotting leads to the second floor featuring four bedrooms, three full baths and second floor laundry. The third floor makes a great home office or yoga studio with an additional full bath. The generously-sized primary bedroom with a long bank of closets, ensuite with newer tiling and great nook that could make an additional home office. Seller improvements include central air in 2019 and two new hot water tanks and sump pumps in 2025. This home is being sold as-is with the buyer to assume the remaining POS Violations, however the sellers are willing to fund the escrow for the violations with the city at an acceptable price point!
