Classic two family home that has been well maintained and preserved by the long term owner occupant. The exterior is in terrific condition and has great curb appeal, including the professionally landscaped front yard with mature plantings. Wide brick entry steps with portico greet your guests. Each unit contains 1398sf of living space with many warm natural wood molding details, which are great low maintenance items that never need painting. Both apartments consist of a large living room with wood burning fireplace and many south facing windows that let the sun stream in. There is a lovely sunroom off the living room, as well as a large formal dining room with 3 large windows. Walk through a quaint, oversized butlers pantry to an eat in kitchen. Both kitchens and baths are ready for your TLC and personal choice additions. Both bedrooms are generously sized and are separated by the bath. A rear porch overlooks a small fenced yard, and there are back stairs to the basement, which has a great poured concrete foundation and high ceilings for lots of storage or potential living space additions. The attic is full of insulation and offers some storage potential. Both boilers are 10 year old steam radiators by natural gas, with gas fired hot water tanks and gas cooking. Outside there is a long, wide driveway with a two car garage at the end.
