Here's your chance to own a piece of history! Situated at the end of an enclave of carriage style homes in much desired Allgates is this character-filled, stone, mid-19th-century farmhouse. A welcoming front porch leads to the main entrance through which the center hall allows access to the kitchen and dining room while down the hall is the living room. The living room is showcased by a handsome wood-mantled fireplace with efficient gas logs, a glass-doored built-in hutch, and an exit to the brick patio and deep rear yard. The dining room is spacious and bright with numerous windows. The eat-in kitchen has white cabinetry, an original built-in pantry cupboard, granite countertops, a dishwasher, garbage disposal, and a French-style refrigerator. Off of the kitchen is the cheerful powder room with a pedestal sink. There are deep-sill replacement windows throughout the first floor. Oak flooring accents the living room, dining room, center hall, staircase to the second floor, and second-floor landing. On the second floor, there is the main bedroom with a spacious dressing room and walk-in closet. An additional bedroom on the second floor has three closets one of which is a walk-in with a built-in chest of drawers. Finishing off the second floor is a spacious hall bath with a second entrance into the main bedroom. The bathroom has double sinks, a large tub, and a stall shower. On the third floor, the option exists for either a two-room bedroom suite or a fabulous two-room office with great views. There is also a full bath with a stall shower on this level. Floored attic access exists through a door in the front bedroom. A cedar closet is accessed through the back bedroom. Pine flooring is throughout most areas of the second and third floors. There is new central air conditioning as of 2019, an updated gas heating system and an on demand hot water system.
