A unique and rare opportunity to own this Eclectic frame residence where so much of the original, spectacular craftsmanship is still on display. This mansion is breathtaking, every room will simply amaze you. It still retains a wealth of Eastlake detail, while decorated in its Victorian architectural elements too. As you enter the home, there is an absolute stunning staircase surrounded by a large foyer. There are 4 bedrooms (all with closet space). The master bedroom has one of the three fireplaces. Much of the home has the original hardwood floors, the dining room floor is particularly beautiful. The ceiling height is 11' on first floor & the second floor is 10'. The kitchen is more up to date, with plenty of workspace & cabinet space. The Carriage House is not to be missed, it has all the unique elements the home does. The attic is great space too, possibilities are endless. This well-preserved historic marvel will no doubt make a history buff a very proud homeowner!
