About this home

Sweet South Wedge home built in 1888 with historical charm combining old style with mindful updates. An entry vestibule with closet greets you leading into a spacious living room with decorative fireplace followed by a generous formal dining room.  There's a powder room on the first floor!  The eat in kitchen has a new dishwasher and connects to a convenient enclosed back porch (great storage and plenty of light for your plants).  This back porch also leads to a deck where you can enjoy trees and birds in a private fully-fenced backyard.  The upstairs has a generous master bedroom and both of the bedroom closets can accommodate your penchant for fashion. Current owner installed new furnace, a/c and dishwasher. The detached garage is a solid structure and has electric.  Park your car or use as a workshop/studio. Nicholson is a quiet street yet a stone's throw away from the South Wedge Hub.
