Rare opportunity in Sherman Hill with a 4 BR, 4 BA remodeled interior home on a double lot. Enter via stately double doors to an ornately tiled vestibule leading into a receiving room with a classic fireplace and main staircase with extensive wood trim. Next flow into a roomy parlor area with a stunning fireplace. Notice all trim in the home is 8 inch base with a two inch decorative top and the historic light fixtures. Next enter a huge dining room and an additional room used as a family room (or 5th bedroom) and note the full bath on this floor. The kitchen is updated in a historical manner with a large island (portable), stainless appliances and open to a large space that could be an eating area or family room. Upstairs the primary BR features a huge beautifully tiled ensuite bath, dual vanities, a tiled shower and walk in closet. A second large BR with an ensuite bath and a washer/dryer closet, 2 more large bedrooms, another beautiful bath and a second stairway complete this floor. Outside note the extensive detail, ornate porch (with new footings), 4 car garage (with 2nd floor storage & 200 amp service) and flagstone patio on the second lot. Notable updates: spray foam insulation throughout; HVAC, plumbing & electrical (400 amp service) in 2011. HVAC is separate by floor with most tile flooring separately heated. All windows but 4 either replaced or refurbished. All the hard work is done! Take advantage of available credits/funds to customize the exterior to your taste.
