PRICE - $64,900

Yes the price is $64,900 (Sixty Four Thousand and Nine Hundred Dollars)

Kitchen

 

 

 

 

The dishwasher needs replaced because we broke the handle. Other than that, all of the appliances are in good working order and stay with the property, including the refrigerator, the two 30" double ovens and glass stove top. The 6 kitchen island stools can stay as well since we ordered them just for the island (I think they were about $200 each).  Also, we had four additional base cabinets made for the kitchen. This was to be fashioned in the one corner making a U-Shape area with countertop could be used as additional eating space and/or computer/work area...anyway the additional base cabinets would stay as well.

Living Room / Dining Room

 

The 1900's Steinway piano would stay.

Master Bedroom

The Archway leads to a door that opens up to the landing of a large staircase, approx. 8' wide, which lease to both the 2nd floor and a set of double doors to the outside. The double doors that lead to the outside need to be repaired or replaced.

The 2 Pillars leading to the Master Bathroom are from India and are about 200 years. We had them intergraded in and they do stay with the property.

Master Bathroom

12 Foot Double Vanity

 

We used Slate for the floors/shower/tub

 Walk-In Shower is Custom Slate and Custom Glass Block

 Rain Shower Head

Very Large Jacuzi Tub



Lots of exposed brick 

Family Room / Grow Room

 



The room on the left is the Grow Room, which can easily be removed or kept the way it is. The large Exterior Door with Side Lights and Transom Window lead to the potential front porch. We put this in as we were going to remove two large windows and door that currently make up this portion of the exterior and create a front porch. The outside wall of this door has already been insulated, sided and we have had exterior porch lights installed on each side of the door and already wire in two fan Boxes for Ceiling Fans. Additional photos of this can been seen in the Exterior portion of the Blog.

 



Door leads to another large bedroom



Laundry Room / Hallway / Guest Bath

Wash and Dryer can stay with the property

Laundry Room is directly off the Kitchen and the cabinets are nice to have in the Laundry Room

Hallway leading out of the Kitchen down to the Guest Bath, two of the bedrooms and Family Room

Second Floor

Stage

Very Large Room

In addition this floor has two half baths, large bedroom, small room for office or nursery, two walk-through closets and stairs leading to the third floor. Also, the Archway Door in the Master Bedroom opens up to the large staircase which leads to this floor. The third floor consist of a large bedroom and the rest is attic.

 

Exterior

 

 

The double doors on the right lead to the large staircase that has previous been described. The two large glass window on the left with a door between them are what we intended to remove as we have already installed a new entry door about 10 foot just inside these windows/door which would make a front porch. The new door and porch lights can be seen in the picture below.

 

This is the new entry door which opens up to the family room as previously shown and described above and in the Family Room portion of the Blog.

The house is directly across the street from both the schools, we have a city pool that is very nice and the city also has an indoor pool you can use during the winter and the library is down the street 1 block. The house was originally built in 1910 as a Union Hall on the 2nd Floor, living space and candy/ice cream store on the 1st Floor and a two lane bowling alley in the basement. When we bought it 7 years ago it and was being used as a Catholic Church.

Other than running all new electric and plumbing, we haven't done much to the 2nd floor, which contains a very large room, a bedroom, office, two half baths (there is room to make one of them a full bath) and two walk-through closets. I have also attached a few pictures of the main room on 2nd floor. You will notice some peeling paint on two of the sections of ceiling as we had a leak during that big wind storm about two years ago. We had a roofing company come out and fix it but we never scraped and repainted those sections of ceiling. You will see from the photos the shutter type window in the middle of the wall above the double doors towards the top, which you can be opened from the third floor and looks down into the 2nd floor - it's really pretty cool to open that and look down into the 2nd floor. The 3rd floor is a finished room that our sons used as their bedroom and the rest is large attic.

The 1st floor is where the majority of the pictures are taken from and the floor that we mostly use. The basement also has two half baths, but we never hooked up the new plumbing to them because we weren't ever going to use them. The toilets and sinks are still there, but you should replace them if you were going to hook them back up.

The house is set up with two water heaters. One service the kitchen, laundry room and guest bathroom and the other services the master bath and 2nd floor half baths. I just recently had a new water heater put in and I think the guy blew the pressure relief valve because it is dripping from the drip leg, so the bottom of the new one is a little rusty. I think I would just replace and be done with it since they don't cost very much at all.

We have not put the interior trim back on, mostly because we liked the way it looks without it. However, all of the trim that was taken off and has been saved and stored in the basement. We also saved all the hardwood flooring from the kitchen area and there are some additional doors that we saved as well.

The windows are replacement windows that were put in shortly before we bought the property 7 years ago. We were told by the priest that a new roof/shingles had been put on right before we bought it. As noted previously, we did have a roof leak from that bad wind storm and had a roofing company fix it and they said it looks good and we haven't had any problems since the roofers did the repairs.

We removed all of the old cast iron plumbing and put it all new copper. We removed all the knob and tube wiring and put in all new electric. We removed the boiler system and put in gas forced air heat and central air conditioning. Only the first floor has been hooked up with the HVAC system. We do have an additional furnace and another 5 ton AC Unit for the 2nd/3rd floor but have not been hooked up, although the furnace is upstairs in the attic and the AC and it's Line Set is in and attached to the house and the gas line is already ran up there as well.
