Call it classic or charming, the only thing missing from this 2-story home is a pitcher of lemonade and a porch swing for the front porch. Located in the Elmhurst neighborhood where 2 story homes on tree-lined streets are the norm, it is full of reminders of how homes were built back in the day. Sturdy and solid, they were built to stand the test of time with solid oak floors, crown molding, leaded glass accent windows, picket fences and high ceilings. This particular beauty has four spacious bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor. The main floor has formal living and dining rooms as well as a half bath off the mud room. The mud room between the kitchen and the back deck can serve as an office, pantry, play room or project room. This vintage home has been thoughtfully preserved for you to enjoy. It is all electric with many updates.
