This enchanting Queen Anne Victorian in Evansville's historic Howell offers spacious rooms, high ceilings, original woodwork and features, as well as some room for improvement. When this home was constructed in 1900, the town of Howell wasn't part of Evansville, and the homes belonged mostly to employees of L & N Railroad. This particular home was one of the finest on the block, with 4 big bedrooms, and two full baths. The upstairs bath is still the home of an original clawfoot bathtub! The exquisite woodwork throughout has been mostly unchanged, and the large pocket doors between the formal dining room, with its windows placed to allow a large buffet cabinet and its built-in china cabinet, and the living room still function perfectly. The original fireplace in the front parlor, however, does not, but conversations around it and about it still take place to this day. Even with nearly all of the original character intact, thoughtful improvements have been made. The roof is 4 years old and the HVAC is only 3 years old. All but one of the windows on the main and upper levels has been replaced with more energy efficient double pane, tilt-in windows. While the basement is more of a cellar, the laundry isn't in it! The backyard feels private and a detached garage has doors on either side, making it accessible from the alley. This is the kind of property that will take some work, but will reward its owner with space and charm. After a few projects are tackled, the next owner of this home will love where they live!
