Your perfect world awaits you. Enjoy all the charm and character of this historic victorian home that features all the benefits of new construction. Moved here from the Drake Neighborhood in 2019 and placed on a new foundation with 9' basement walls. At that time, all the mechanicals were new, as well as the roof and all the electrical and plumbing systems were updated. The rest of the home has been remodeled and restored including a large kitchen and four bathrooms. With the newer basement, you'll find plenty of storage and finished space perfect for a rec room or office space. The main floor has beautiful woodwork and two gorgeous fireplaces (one has a gas insert, one is for aesthetics). The second floor has four bedrooms and two three quarter bathrooms. More space on the 3rd floor feat ures another bedroom (or office) plus a large bonus room with an attached bath making it perfect for guests! Outside you'll find stunning landscaping, patio area and a large garage (with loft storage) built in 2020. Walkable to Smokey Row and a new children’s art studio. A few more blocks and you’re at Home Grown, The Good Butcher, Gateway Market, ADong, Lua and Big Grove Breweries. Easy access to I-235!
