Description
The owners of 290 Forest are reluctantly are passing their home onto the next generation, with the hopes that new owners will be as happy as they have been for the past 40+ years. Situated on a .39 acre lot, in a lovely neighborhood, just four blocks to town, and with over 3100 square feet, this house is so worthy of updating, remodeling or expanding. The gracious dining room features a lovely built-in breakfront, and has an adjoining butler's pantry. Not one but two sets of original pocket doors in the gracious entry, one set for the living room, and one for the dining. Fabulous oversized windows flood the house with sunlight, 9' ceilings, and hardwood floors almost everywhere provide a feeling of old-time elegance. The house is filled with special details, including original front door, lots of interesting hardware, some original light fixtures and a unique fireplace. The bedroom closets provide a peek at what the floors are like beneath the carpeting. To add a bit of history, the builder of the home's last name was Turner, and the house is situated at the corner of Forest and Turner. Mr. Turner was the developer of the nearby neighborhood. Floor plans are available in the listing, to help with your designs for the future!
