Cherished by just two owners over its 95-year legacy, this special 3 bedroom solid stone twin with gorgeous curb appeal is situated on a tree-lined street in the desirable neighborhood of Coleston, with detached Garage and added off-street parking for 3 cars. Its enduring charm is wrapped in a solid stone exterior, while the essence of character is woven through 14 deep windowsills, gleaming hardwood floors throughout, arched openings and the authenticity of original doors, door knobs and brass light fixtures. Every major component has been recently updated, reflecting a home both steeped in history and equipped for the modern era, including the roof, windows, furnace, oil tank and sewer line. A deep covered front porch with wood ceiling provides the welcoming entrance. The spacious Living Room features a wood-burning fireplace with stone surround and mantel above and is open to the Dining Room with built-in hutch, crown molding, chandelier, and a 2-way swing door to the Kitchen.
