Spectacular and charming describe this gorgeous brick cape that captivates you as soon as you pull up to view the home. Old world character is evident as you walk up to the front door and notice the hardware, the leaded glass windows and the period outdoor lighting. As you walk through the entrance foyer you enter a huge living room with timeless oak floors and a beautiful picture window. Imagine yourself decorating for the holidays and placing your Christmas tree in front of this wonderful window. You fall in love with the solid wood doors with crystal doorknobs and original hardware. Walk through the arched doorway into the formal dining room that leads to a working kitchen with plenty of cabinets for storing all of your kitchenware. There's a convenient half bath just past the kitchen and right before the lovely enclosed porch. There's a separate bedroom wing on the first floor that's serviced by a full bath. A stairway leads to a huge unfinished attic that you can turn into a magnificent master suite. A finished attic room is the perfect location for a master bathroom. Hidden away is a door that leads to a secret mystifying prohibition room. The basement has an unheated finished family room and office that is warmed by the boiler's heating pipes. A huge unfinished area of the basement is great for storage and is where the laundry and mechanicals are located. The gas boiler will keep your heating bills affordable. The home is situated on a scenic, level lot. A must see!
