It’s not only because we office out of the Avenues that we love this neighborhood.

There is its location to our city’s fab eateries (though being walking distance from Gourmandise does nothing for our waistlines), but it also, and perhaps moreso, the variety of homes clustered so closely together up and down these streets. Where else can one find such an eclectic assortment of Queen Annes, Tudors, Spanish Colonial Revivals and Art Modernes? Take for example this proud American Foursquare. Built in 1907, the residence exemplifies the style of architecture: two stories, rectangular footprint and a front porch that runs the full length of the house. The curb appeal of this veranda is about as good as they come.

The interior has been recently renovated while maintaining the charm and character of the original work. The living room, dining and kitchen flow effortlessly from one to the other. 

Past the kitchen leads you to an enclosed patio complete with fireplace and a wall of stacked glass panels.

There are four bedrooms and four bathrooms in this home. The owner’s suite is located on the second level, and it is spacious. Two other bedrooms, a bath and laundry complete the upstairs. In the lower level, you’ll find the fourth bedroom and adjoining bathroom along with a casual, cozy family room. This is the quintessential, turn of the century home, roomy, solidly built and fully modernized.

And it’s ready for someone new to call it home.
