The stuff historic home dreams are made of in Linwood Place. Built in 1928, this home has had just two owners. Will you be its lucky third? Behold! All the charm a purist yearns for but rarely finds: original hardwoods, unspoiled wood trim, original tile, built-ins, gorgeous hardware and fixtures. Do you believe a home can give off good vibes? You're sure to feel them here, because it's filled with nearly a century of love. Starting from the curb you know it's special. The home is classic redbrick, poised gracefully on a large, green, leafy corner lot. Lush lawn and mature trees. Through the arched doorway there's a proper entryway. To the right is the living room with gas fireplace and pretty natural light. The sun porch is off of that with lovely arched windows. It's the perfect second living area or plant room. To the left of the entry is the formal dining, then breakfast nook with original built-in hutch. The kitchen is laid out nicely; you needn't move a thing. With frosted glass and glass knobs, the cabinetry is original and darling, beautiful just as it is, or you can shine it up with a fresh coat of paint. Perhaps you will want to add your touch with new classic countertops and updated appliances, but nothing more than that. Up the stairs (with their exquisite runner), you'll find a substantial landing that can house a desk or sitting area. The primary suite is large with an attached, spacious closet and access to the balcony. Two more beds plus a study upstairs. Then there are the two full bathrooms upstairs. If you love original tile, you are going to be in heaven. It's a gift to the home that this tile has been there since 1928; it's in excellent condition. There's a utility basement, outdoor patio, nice yard area. As if this property were not rare enough, there is a circular drive with a solid, three car garage. In a quiet part of Linwood, just around from the park it's in an ideal location. Truly a treasure, seize the chance to make it yours.
