Step back in time to 1907 and experience the timeless beauty of a true Victorian treasure! Rarely does a home come along that allows you to experience history while still offering the space and functionality of today. Situated on a larger corner lot in the heart of Brookston, this stunning all-brick Victorian has been lovingly maintained, with the current owner taking great care to preserve as much of its original character as possible. From the custom wrought-iron fence and spacious privacy-fenced backyard to the grand front porch and beautiful custom front door, this property makes an unforgettable first impression. Step inside to a large foyer where the craftsmanship of another era immediately takes center stage. Original woodwork, crown molding, trim, light fixtures, built-ins, fireplace and mantel showcase the incredible character found throughout the home. Large windows fill the rooms with an abundance of natural light. The main floor offers a spacious sitting room and elegant dining room featuring original built-ins, hardwood floors beneath the carpet, a beautiful original fireplace and large mirror. The generous kitchen provides plenty of space, radiant heat that doubles as a unique bread warmer, and access to the attached mudroom and garage. The grand staircase is a showstopper, featuring wide steps, beautiful sconces, windows and a charming bench seat with storage tucked into the landing. Upstairs, you’ll find four large bedrooms, all showcasing original hardwood floors, trim and crown molding. One bedroom offers washer/dryer hookups for added flexibility. A full bathroom with updated finishes. Second floor allows access to the terrace above the garage and the expansive third-floor attic. The attic offers vaulted ceilings, original charm and incredible potential for additional finished living space. Downstairs, the clean basement provides additional storage, a shower and utility sink, with potential to add another bathroom. A piece of the home’s history remains here as well-the original entryway once allowed the French Family to bring supplies in/out for their canning business- ran in the home. Outside, enjoy plenty of room for entertaining, gardening and relaxing. They truly don’t make them like this anymore. A home of this age, character and immaculate condition is a rare find.
