Join us for our open house this Sunday, September 9th from 2-4.In the days of Horse and Buggy this classic Arts & Crafts bungalow was built on a dusty 2 track road leading from town to the amusement park at Woods Lake. Built by the sheriff's son Walter Allen (himself the president of the Board of REALTORS) the design gracefully reflects the confluence of the Art Nouveau and Art Deco movements. For 28 years the current owners have lovingly and carefully restored, improved and enhanced this beautiful home. You will love the romantic 1.5 acre setting with direct access to Kleinstuck Preserve as you will the delightful well-appointed floor plan including a front-to-back family room w fireplace inglenook, large pocket doors. See a list of the many fine features in our supplement.
