This beautifully maintained historic home in Society Hill must have a lot of stories to tell! If the walls could talk, we can only imagine the tales of history that date back to 1830! There is so much original character and charm that lets your imagination run wild as you picture all of the wonderful people who have loved this home. Entering into the living room, you are greeted by one of 8 (yes 8!) brick fireplaces, recessed lighting, crown molding and original wide-plank pine flooring that has been very well cared for. As you continue to the back of the main floor, you?ll pass through an adorable archway where you can find a nice-sized powder room and another living space. Stained double French doors with arched windows open to your private and serene outdoor terrace and garden. Imagine sipping on a glass of wine under the stars as the city begins to quiet down for the night. Spiral stairs lead you from the main floor down to the lower level, where an eat-in kitchen and dining room with another brick fireplace awaits. Stained double sliding doors let in lots of natural light and can be opened to let in the fresh air from your lower level patio where you can enjoy an al fresco dinner on a nice summer night. The entire second floor is home to an enormous master suite, where you are first welcomed by a sitting area with a fireplace and the sleeping area with another fireplace and walk-in closet. Wait until you see the spacious and luxurious master bathroom! The updated marble is more than you would expect in such a historic home. Also, have you ever seen a master bathroom with a private balcony? Illuminated by double glass paneled doors, skylights and a vaulted ceiling this space paints a grand picture with a jetted tub, stall shower, bidet and extra-long double vanity. The 3rd floor offers a second bedroom with a full bathroom and 2 fireplaces while the top floor features a dormer style bedroom with original exposed beams, brick wall, reading nook, a fireplace and full bathroom with a tub/shower.
