Take a step back in time! This amazing American Foursquare Architecture built in 1909 was part of the New Albany Historic Home Tour in September, 2008. With sadness, the owners are relocating and have put it up for sale. Through the front porch and leaded glass front door, walk into a reception hall with its magnificent stained glass window illuminating the stairwell and hall. The Parlor to the left has a working gas log fireplace and all of the wood above the floor is Cherry. Through the rest of the home you'll find original pine and oak floors with wood inlay on the 1st floor. The Rooms are enormous, the space is grand, the feel is luxurious, and the views of this home will have you believing you have been transported back in time. The kitchen has been updated but still maintains the charm of its ancestors. The keeping room has a working 1870 Parlor stove made in New Albany. Up one of the 2 staircases you'll find 4 enormous bedrooms, each a tribute to bed and breakfasts and cozy inns all across the country. The 3rd floor has actually been finished (not heated or air conditioned), but has been made into a chapel and a place for storage. The basement is also large and has plenty of space for a workshop or storage. Out back is a 600 (yes you are reading correctly) 600 square foot roofed and screened-in porch with a sunken Jacuzzi. An arbor covered with wisteria leads you through the large backyard surrounded by a white picket fence to a 3 car garage. Other features include electric as well as working gas ligh fixtures; marble slabs under radiators, rebuilt box gutters, natural gas outlets for gas grill on back-porch, new pained exterior, remodeled bath and commode room, installed claw foot tub. This is a must see; don't deprive yourself of one of the most impressive homes New Albany has to offer. Distributed by Tubemogul.
