Welcome home to this 1902 Capitol Hill Victorian within walking distance to Cheesman Park. The spacious front porch is the perfect place to relax with a cocktail, and the private back yard is a gardener's dream. Many unique and original features of the home have been lovingly maintained including the pocket doors which separate the living room with its carved-wood fireplace, beautifully detailed foyer, and formal dining room with built-in hutch. The main floor also features new red oak hardwood floors, a half bath, mudroom and upscale kitchen with a Sub-Zero fridge and Dacor double oven. Note the Victorian ball-and-stick fretwork as you climb the stairs to the second floor where you will find two bedrooms, two of the five bathrooms - one with a claw-foot tub, a sitting room, and a large walk-in closet. On the third floor you'll find two living areas and another bathroom. The large basement, most recently used as offices, can easily be converted back into an apartment, and includes a private entrance. Extensive quality updates abound including new windows, sidewalks, railings, brick retaining wall, decorative brickwork, brick stairwell, wooden rear entry door, wood siding, new gutters, downspouts, flashing and more. New 50 gallon water heater, and new 200-amp electrical service. Close to coffee shops, bars, restaurants, grocery stores and all that this desirable urban location has to offer.
