## Description

### Agent Description
This is the one you have been waiting for if you love pristine examples of historic architecture and design. Absolutely stunning and meticulously preserved period home that will delight you from the moment you stop onto the screened in porch and cross the threshold into the grand entry. Timeless craftsmanship greets you on the spacious first floor with immaculate hardwood floors, pristine pocket doors, and a grand stair case to the 2nd floor bedroom quarters. Behind those original & stunning doors, the 1st floor has a study/4th possible bedroom, an expansive living room, full bath, & an oversized sunny eat in kitchen. The marvelous floorplan flows perfectly for every day living while surrounded by classic design. A rare gem for those who dream of owning an original home that is beautiful, functional and immaculately preserved. Not only is it in a lovely walkable neighborhood, there are also Invest DSM funds available for any upgrades. A must see if you love rare beauty.
