This is one of those glorious, sweeping, Victorian mansions you always hear about. Located in Lafayette Square and facing historic Lafayette Park, this grand lady exhibits beautiful and historic architectural detail all while bringing modernity and convenience into the current era. You will be awed by the spectacular stone facade featuring etched details among the historic cornicework and original, 9 foot plus walnut, exterior doors. Curved archways, recessed wood detail, stone sills, molded concrete, limestone steps, and historic, wrought iron handrails tie everything together wonderfully. First floor is spacious with a large, double parlor, an amazing dining room, and an updated, dramatic, two-story kitchen featuring solid wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, exposed brick and incredible wood detail. You will also find original, plaster ceiling medallions, seven fireplaces of marble and iron, gorgeous, period, brass lighting fixtures, bay windows, skylights, some newer Marvin windows, triple zoned heating and cooling, and historic wallpaper and molding to die for. Upstairs is four bedrooms, a library/sitting area overlooking the kitchen below, two full baths, back deck, luxurious carpet, amazing, original wood staircase, handrails, spindles, and newel post, and more. The grounds of this home will seal the deal. In addition to the home facing Lafayette Park, there is a wonderfully spacious yard with an irrigation system, enclosed porch, brick patio, fine gardens, two car garage and privacy fence. Come be a part of the neighborhood. See the summer concerts! Watch the old timey baseball! Walk to have dinner! Sit by the fountain! You will love being here.
