Description

This historical 1915 craftsman home in Mahnke Park was extensively renovated in 2013 with upgrades or replacements to mechanical, structural and aesthetic elements including raising the home almost 5" and installing concrete piers. Please inquire for the extensive list of the high-quality work done along with vendor names. Upon entering under the covered porch, you are welcomed into the large living area replete with a grand staircase along the west end. The ground floor has separate living and dining rooms, each with their own fireplace, original hardwood floors, millwork, and high ceilings with recessed lighting. Under the stairs, a 1/2 bath was added and the adjacent bright, well lit kitchen has a gas range, french door refrigerator, and Kitchen Craft cabinetry that is pre-wired for a future dishwasher if desired. On the second floor there is a full bath, separate storage closet, a screened-in sleeping porch, and 3 bedrooms. The bedrooms are currently configured as 2 large bedrooms with the 3rd room serving as an office. Each room has lovely hardwood floors, smooth white walls, recessed lighting, numerous windows and period-appropriate closets. The homes electrical and plumbing systems were also upgraded during the main renovation, with a 50 gallon water heater installed. The multi-point ductless Mitsubishi heat and AC system has a dehumidifying function to keep the home comfortable year round, and has been recently serviced with replacement of the control board in August. The front yard has an automated sprinkler system, and the 100+ year old pecan trees have recently been trimmed by a certified arborist. The spacious back yard is large enough to accommodate a future garage or carport which could be accessed by extending the concrete driveway. The home's utilities are underground, as is the CPS service on Pershing Avenue which adds to the tremendous aesthetic appeal of this historic street.
