Property Description

"Vintage cool" doesn't begin to describe this 1930's treasure! The phrase "curb appeal" was coined on this home. A true classic. "They don't build 'em like this anymore" can't be overstated. One of a kind! Yes, it will be tough dealing with your jealous friends and family but you'll get through it. Check out the charming double-door entry, coats on the side. Custom plaster work, stylish archways, hand-crafted stair rails.... You know that one house in the neighborhood that you pass by and say "THAT'S a cool house".......this is that house. Solid oak doors feature original glass door knobs, bay-windowed living room catches the sunrise across the wood-burning fireplace and oh that 13' oak mantle-gorgeous! Flanked by accent windows and built-in shelves, imagine your lighted Christmas village, family photos and collectibles lovingly displayed. A welcoming, expansive entry easily accommodates a heritage coat rack and boot bench. The finished basement features a full bath and office/hobby room! Surprisingly large closets and built-in book shelves in every bedroom! Private, pet-friendly fenced yard. Original hardwood covers all first and second floors. Pride of ownership shows through in the loving care of this legacy home. Now it's your turn to enjoy.....the hard work has been done. Wonderful neighborhood with towering oak & hickory trees, beautiful in all seasons. Close to schools and the park/sledding hill is just a few blocks away! Five minutes gets your toes in the sands of Lake Michigan. Swimming, boating, fishing. New break water beach! Low taxes. What's so great about Winthrop Harbor? We're ready with those answers. Listing agent and seller's hometown! Very possibly your forever home. Wouldn't that be great? We look forward to working with you.
