This is a genuine early 1900s brick home that has been lived in carefully but not updated. The bones — original hardwood floors, crown moulding, ceiling medallions, two fireplaces with wood mantels, and French glass doors — are all intact and in reasonable shape.
The kitchen is fully original 1970s-era and will need a complete overhaul. The upper bathroom is in the same condition. Every room has wallpaper, much of it bold and dated. Buyers should go in expecting a cosmetic renovation project throughout.
What you get in return is a large, well-proportioned detached brick house with a detached garage, a private rear garden, and a rear mudroom with exposed brick. The main floor layout is formal and spacious. For buyers willing to do the work, the structure is solid and the original details are worth preserving.
