Description

The tall shade trees and brick steps and porch guide you to a rare city single on a large .25 acre lot that has been carefully updated and remodeled with stainless kitchen appliances, new paint on the inside and outside, and numerous improvements. The original front door opens into a marble vestibule and through an oak/glass door into a beautiful oak hallway and stairway. It is presently set up for two apartments - 1st floor with one bedroom, bath, livingroom, kitchen w/ half bath, basement laundry AND the 2nd & 3rd floor apartment with two bedrooms, livingroom, bath, laundry room, kitchen w/ outside entrance. This stately house could easily be converted back to a large 4 bedroom single family home. It was originally built by Paul Wiggins, a local well known businessman and major car dealer. It was built in 1963 with many interior amenities of that time but with an exterior to blend in with the neighborhood that was built in the early twentieth century. It has beautiful oak floors, doors and trim throughout, several oak pocket doors, oak builtin furniture, marble fireplace surround and mantle [non-burning], and 9+ foot ceilings. The large lawn with many flowerbeds, grape arbor, mature shrubs and huge covered patio are enclosed behind a stockade fence for more privacy. The two car garage has a seperate 29 x 20 shop/storage area that would be perfect for an in house business. There is plenty of parking in this quiet neighborhood to accomodate parties or a business. Lancaster elementary school is nearby or several private schools are very convenient. The seller will do some minor modifications for a qualified buyer.
