The interior boasts of many stained and leaded glass windows, filigree ironwork, and an original Dutch-style front door. The intricately carved wood details surrounding the front door, create a charming entrance into an impressive foyer complete with the original staircase. A winding brick walkway surrounds the house, encouraging residents to meander through a beautifully planted, shared garden. Additionally, there are approved plans for a 6 car parking lot utilizing a portion of the back area, that a new Owner could complete should they choose.
