Why finance someone else's grey and white vision when you can create your masterpiece on a well preserved canvas? This post-Victorian colonial was built in 1874, and it's era correct charm reflects. Double leaf doors welcome you into the foyer and living room where tall windows let in ample light. In the middle is a large dining room with powder room attached. The vaulted ceiling kitchen with exposed beams add drama right off a sun room truly worthy of the name. Seriously how many sunrooms have you seen with like 4 windows? You feel me. Upstairs 3 bedrooms and a full bath, plus an entry to a walkup attic which you can stand in. Also, there is a Yankee basement in the kitchen. Outside is a long driveway and 2 car block and concrete garage with walk through door. Behind that, a large pool and massive deck so you can skip the long beach lines and loud people and soak up summer. If you are surrounded by rude people here, well, they are your problem. All this, under a million in the red hot WLB? Yeah, this is the one you've been waiting for!
