Property Description
Rare traditional Charm! Comfort and functionality wrapped in this original Milton Beauty located in prime section of the Historic district. Classic covered front porch with metal roof and original door begins your trip back in time. As you enter, the home opens up to sweet staircase of unusual configuration and a first floor master bedroom, and opposing, a gracious "keeping room" as it was originally called. To the back is an upgraded kitchen with stainless appliances and antique hand built cabinets. An ample dining area and a laundry area with a Renai instant hot water system. Mid staircase is the first bedroom offering privacy and connection to the Jack and Jill bathroom Further up the stairs is another bedroom which has the staircase to the attic with expansion possibilities. Consistent with new energy efficiency all rooms are individually a/c controlled with remotes. Unique to this property is a carpeted writer's studio with a propane fireplace and a screened in porch for summer entertaining. Gracious antique brick lined and trellised walkways, settled "secret gardens" and patios ripe for a fire pit on cool nights Still further in back are original sheds that are ripe for restoration. Nestled behind all of this is a space for an in-ground pool or children's play area. And if that is not enough, there is ample parking in a massive driveway, so important for owners and guests alike. This home is an important chapter in your family scrap book.
