So much more than fresh paint.

So often you hear the word restoration and expect to see an amazing reflection of the past in impeccable condition. When you arrive you find a home that has been painted inside and out to the point where the doors cannot open and close properly.

This restoration takes that concept out of your mind the moment you enter the front entry. Visitors and buyers alike have actually gasped at the sense of character and immense beauty this home emotes.

From the original refinished doors, hardware and working skeleton key locks with ornate glass knobs to the original architectual details, this home takes your breath away.

The home doesn't stop with beauty. The renovations reveal modern conveniences only found in new construction. Underground wiring, complete interior rewiring with added three-way switches and outlets beyond code guidelines, multiple cat 5 and cable jacks throughout the house, bring this 1926 home into and beyond the second millenium. Dual zone cenral air and heating, one system for the master suite upstairs and one for the main house downstairs allow you flexibility and comfort on both levels.

If you enjoy music, this is the only historic home to be completely wired with sound and volume controls in every room and the backyard. Speakers and amplifier are also included in the sale.

You will never drive up to a dark house at night. This home has outdoor lanterns already on sunset sensors. There are lanterns on all sides of the home. You feel like you are driving up to a mini Palm Beach mansion.

In addition to a wonderful home, the 440 s/f garage boasts a separate electrical panel, completely new wiring, half bath and a 4ft x 6ft custom built outside hot/cold shower stall.
