Circa 1887, this graceful 3-story 10-room Victorian home is nestled in the heart of downtown just a short walk to the bustling Historic District and bay front esplanade. Presiding over a tree-lined street, where century old oaks provide welcome shade so you can enjoy covered front porches year round. The porte cochere originally held horse-drawn buggies but now keeps you and your car dry should a shower pass by. A recent restoration recaptured the 19th century style of elegance with a nod to more casual lifestyles. A quintessential covered porch is the spot for morning coffee and evening cocktails where you'll start and end each day. Step inside and immerse yourself in this inspired home where modern comforts and historical design fuse together seamlessly. A formal living room with original heart pine floors has a chocolate fireplace mantle with Eastlake detail. The central dining room boasts another intricately designed hearth, large windows and high ceiling. Opening to the kitchen where espresso stained cabinets and crisp white appliances will make your culinary muse come alive. A large bedroom overlooks the garden and a family room (perfect for movie night) opens to the backyard. A 2nd story treetop porch looks over Grove Ave. There's room for everyone to enjoy their own space with ample common area for hosting parties large and small. Each room has individual European ductless heat and air systems so there's no fussing! Made private by a courtyard wall, the deep backyard is ripe for all sorts of fun. Grilling, sitting around the fire pit, gardening, al fresco dining - pick your pleasure. Open the back gate and downtown is at your fingertips with cultural and culinary delights, music and art - welcome.
