Circa 1886, Victorian Stick-Eastlake, a perfectly 'modern' style of the day featuring the angular carpentry & intricate wood detail that ornament this fine red brick home. Like a work of art that stand the test of time with original mantles, richly restored woodwork, balusters, built-ins & box beam ceilings warm the interior. The authentic historic architecture meets modern luxury as we step into the fitting yet totally modern gourmet kitchen, quite appropriate, knowing the builder of the home, Prussian born Charles Bekurs, was a successful restauranteur in early Parkersburg. The grand rooms are inviting, to seek refuge or to entertain, with 1st floor including the parlor, family parlor, library & banquet size dining room. Conveniently the laundry is off the kitchen on the 1st floor. The 2nd floor boasts a beautifully updated master bath, 5 bedrooms, an additional hall bath and a walk-in closet. Full-size stairs to attic storage. Basement is painted & clean with several work-rooms, one including a commercial size 3-bin stainless sink (once used in winemaking). Of special interest is a unique & lovely wine cellar/tasing room with built-in wine racks & sideboard. The exterior offers an inviting large front porch, upper-level balcony, back patio for entertaining, raised garden beds, single car carriage house & double car parking pad. Restored, maintained, updated, a part of a strong active community, this is your refuge.
