Have you been searching for a historic home that has been beautifully updated and meticulously restored? This residence, full of character, is located in the Oakdale neighborhood, just steps from the Back Cove trail, cafes, restaurants, and markets. Built circa 1880, it was one of the first homes in the area and boasts abundant natural light. Upon entering, you’ll be greeted by a grand staircase that separates two living rooms—one featuring a gas fireplace with a custom tile surround, the other currently used as a music room—both adorned with original leaded glass transom windows. The spacious dining room includes a built-in china cabinet and bay window. The professionally renovated kitchen combines style and functionality, with new, never-used appliances and an adjacent pantry. Completing the first floor is a large rear entry room that could serve as a playroom, along with a full bath and laundry area. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers custom built-in closets and drawers, accompanied by three additional bedrooms, a large bathroom, and ample storage. A walk-up attic provides even more storage space. The detached, climate-controlled studio in the backyard is ideal for an art studio, home office, or exercise space, while the barn accommodates two vehicles. Recent upgrades include new LP Smart Siding, roof, refinished hardwood floors throughout, European-style radiators with a high-efficiency heating system, and a new front porch. A unique fun and historical fact; this home is where ”Mount Williams Vanilla” was founded in 1906 which is still manufactured today, with the original safe from Prohibition still housed in the old barn.
