A door in the kitchen leads to the basement. The unfinished basement has a dirt floor. A storm damaged the garage door that gave access from the outside (backyard) so this access is currently boarded up. Off the kitchen is the great room which is the complete length of the home, with its multiple windows and a fireplace, there is plenty of room for the whole family to relax or to entertain for that special occasion. The double glass doors at the front end of the great room lead back into the entry hall. To the right of the entry hall through more double glass doors is a large receiving room, it would make a fine office or den. A short hall also off to the right of the entry hall leads the main level full bathroom and a bedroom, this room looks out over the side and back of the extra-large lot. The home has many historical features and character unseen in modern homes. Even a niche for the early telephone’s pride of place. a number of chandeliers and a period glass glob add to the historic charm.
