A rare opportunity to own a piece of history in the highly desirable Crescent Lake neighborhood. Located just two blocks from the popular park, which includes amenities such as tennis and pickleball courts, a dog park, walking and jogging trails and recently renovated playgrounds. Offering both charm and elegance, this 1905 home has been meticulously maintained. The property sits on a large 136-by-97 corner lot and boasts three porches, two legal, detached income-producing one bed, one bath apartment with full kitchen and baths, an oversized privately fenced-in backyard and a circular driveway. This property features an abundance of windows and natural light, high ceilings, era-specific decorative molding, the original exposed-brick fireplace, glass doorknobs and 7-inch baseboards. Downstairs, you’ll find the original kitchen with many charming features, such as a vintage-style farmhouse sink, original cabinetry and butler’s pantry. Across the home, you’ll find a “den” with a gorgeous, bricked fireplace, a bonus room with en-suite bath and another living space with French doors to one of three separate patios. Downstairs features two baths. Upstairs, you’ll find three large bedrooms, one with an en-suite bath facing the north side of the home. The other two large bedrooms share another bath. Once upstairs, you’ll notice the pulldown attic. This isn’t an ordinary attic; this large space is awaiting your finishing touches. Large enough to walk around and with original windows. The two detached apartments are perfect for renting to add additional income, a space for a luxurious home office or welcoming your guests. Everyone will enjoy the sanctuary of a large, lush backyard filled with plants and trees or spending the summer nights on the charming porch enjoying the quiet bustle of the Crescent Lake neighborhood. This property is perfect for someone who appreciates historic character, charm and has a love for the outdoors. Proximity to downtown restaurants, shopping and local arts. No flood insurance required.
