Featured in the book "Cottages and Castles," this legacy Queen Anne, circa 1904, was originally built by Captain Mitchell Tyson, a Danish immigrant and ship's captain. Sited on a beautiful double lot in the center of town, this gracious Victorian is a stunning blend of Craftsman and Colonial Revival details, framed by a magnificent arched porch entryway. The famed "Tyson House" features 5 bdrms/3.5bths, formal living and dining rooms, many bonus spaces, and an inviting parlor in over 4,000 square feet of hand-crafted artistry. With lush, wrap-around gardens, and a sports court, this elegant home also makes room for today's active lifestyle. Its current owners took great pains and expense to improve the engineering and replace most of the original brick foundation, while creating the perfect blank canvas for an ADU, in-law unit, or home expansion below. A large, finished attic above offers additional untapped potential. Close to coveted K-12 public schools, Exedera Park & Mulberry's.
