If you were the original owner of this charming antique colonial,you would have been sipping your afternoon tea on the wrap-around porch chatting about our new President Abe Lincoln, commiserating about the Civil War, or reading the recently released book "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland". So much has happened in our world since this home was built and many more conversations were had on that porch,but it has withstood it all. Still proudly boasting original features such as hardwood flooring, molding, built in china cupboard and a butler's pantry,this home offers 8 bedrooms, each with a walk in closet, & 2 full baths on 2 floors of living area. There is both a grand front staircase as well as a private rear staircase,assumably the access to the 3rd floor servants quarters.The roof, many windows, heating &electrical system have been upgraded.There is a 3 year old 2 car garage.The exterior of this home is in need of some TLC to restore it back to its original grandeur.Easements exist
8 Bed 2 Bath 2,163 Sq Ft 0.91 Ac.
