Description

WOW! Look at how well this woodwork has been preserved for over 100 years! Looking for another owner who can be a part of preserving the woodwork for another 100 years. From the moment you enter this home through the original wood front door you will be impressed with all the natural woodwork from the stairway to the upstairs bedrooms, the living room fireplace mantle, the wall to wall dining room buffet, door and window trim and more! The bedrooms upstairs are sizable. The large bathroom has a period clawfoot tub.
