Historic Elegance Meets Modern Comfort! Ideally located just minutes from parks, shopping, and recreation, this beautifully restored heritage home offers the perfect blend of old-world charm and contemporary upgrades. Originally built in the late 1800s as the Jackman and Greene residence, it stands as a rare piece of local history—with all the comforts of today. Inside, you’ll find stunning architectural details, including a hand-painted ceiling mural by the apprentice of Alexander Pindikowsky, famed for his work on the Basilica. The original staircase and two functioning fireplaces reflect the home’s storied past, while modern updates ensure everyday comfort. The former servants' quarters have been thoughtfully incorporated into the main floor plan, improving layout and functionality. Classic cast iron radiators provide cozy, radiant heat throughout, powered by a newly installed electric furnace. High ceilings on both levels enhance the bright, airy feel of every room. Craftsmanship is celebrated at every turn—from a custom-built heritage-style front door by artisan Mike Patterson to original stained glass accents and a striking glass foyer doorway. Step outside to enjoy the spacious backyard, complete with two stone patios and an upper balcony off a second-floor bedroom—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Recent Update: The home’s eastern and southern exterior has just been refreshed with brand-new wooden siding, combining lasting durability with classic curb appeal. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in a highly desirable, central neighborhood—fully move-in ready and waiting for you. (id:55727)
