ROOM TO THRIVE. Owned & occupied by the same family for over 55 years. This is a Two-Story House with a Full Daylight Basement with 2 walk-outs (basement stays 65-70 when outside is in the 90's) There are 20 rooms (including BRs & BAs). Sometimes a site's software double-counts some rooms because I supplied the dimensions. There is an additional 500 sq ft unfinished in basement for Furnaces, Freezer & Storage. Second detached building (Carriage House) is currently used for Yard and Outside Workshop. Roomy & Sturdy originally built by Contractor for his own family. Original Building started in 1929 and was completed in 1932. In 1968-1969 a 1560 sf addition (Formal Dining, TV & Bonus Rooms) was done. Good quality upgrades done at the same time - still have plenty of good use left in them. Some unique built-ins. Hutches, benches, laundry shoot, etc. Semi-enclosed Front Porch doubles as mud & sun room as desired. Geared for large active family living with eye to durability and low maintenance. There are no laminates or other short-term durability products installed here. Sump Pump keeps basements dry and essentials are setup to run on 2 portable generators (included). Good attic insulation. Heating (Gas) bills are lower than many homes one-third this size. Also note that other site's historical info and estimates are based on the 1962 (pre-1968 addition) square footage and single lot since that was the last time there was an arms-length sale of this property. Easy walking distance to quality public schools may be one factor in why the 5 kids that grew up here include an Army Captain, a Marine Corporal, a steel-worker, a school teacher & interior decorator, a pharmacist & Dentist, an MD, an accountant, varsity wrestlers, varsity gymnast & tennis team, class president, rally queen, student body president, all honor roll including a district honor society VP, etc. This home provides room to flourish.
