Property Description
the story that would become Madame Butterfly. Much of the home?s original character is still
intact including original hardwood floors, working wood windows, built-in benches on each
staircase landing and in the dining room, two gas fireplaces, and stained-glass and leaded-glass
windows. The exterior boasts a half-acre lot, slate roof, wraparound porch with a wooden swing,
and a two-tier backyard with the original stone retaining wall.
Enter the home through the front double doors and into an oversized foyer situated with a large
coat closet and wide curved staircase with beautiful woodwork. Continue on through the pocket
doors to the family room with its natural gas fireplace and through another set of pocket doors to
the home?s formal dining room. Solid wood kitchen cabinets offer plenty of storage and through
the kitchen you can access a half bath, spacious basement, back porch and rear staircase. The
second floor has 3 large bedrooms oozing with original charm and an enormous bathroom. The
primary second-floor bedroom has a curved turret wall, a half-circle embossed ceiling medallion,
and the second gas fireplace. Continue up the grand staircase to the 3rd floor with two
additional bedrooms and another large bathroom with a clawfoot tub.
Unusual for a home of this period, the house has central air conditioning, an abundance of electrical outlets, and deep, oversized closets. All systems are in excellent working order, and plaster has been repaired throughout the home.
