Property Description

Circa 1847 This house has a Historic Plaque and is known as the "Courtney House". This grand stucco over stone historic house is a 3 bedroom, 2 and 1/2 bath treasure. It boasts of one of the largest and most beautiful Sycamore trees in Delaware county contributing to a very pretty yard with great curb appeal. As with many of the old homes some modernization must occur to make the home comfortable for modern living. In this case the architectural integrity has been preserved. The kitchen and large breakfast addition with a powder room added a lot of living space and in turn created a large combination laundry and mud room which was the original small kitchen. In the breakfast area there is large bow window with deep sill, a cast iron wood burning stove as well as an full pantry with a special very old glass insert. There are 2 corner cabinets and outside entrance to the side yard and brick patio. The original Dining room has windows with deep sills and rounded "corners". There is a beamed ceiling, built in shelving, fireplace with stone hearth and original floors. The large living room has 2 sets of built in book shelves, a guest closet, original poplar wood floors, a fireplace and two front doors leading to an enclosed porch. Years ago that porch was closed in to create a well used family room. The porch has lots of windows, a wooden floor and original bead board ceiling. The master bedroom is on the 2nd floor. It has it's own bathroom, plenty of closet space and more windows with the antique rounded corners. A second bedroom is also on this level as well as a full hall bath. The third level is really a suite comprised of a bedroom and a sitting area suitable for studying or relaxation. There is also another room that has been used as storage and at one time a small bedroom. A large attractive shed is on the property that was built in keeping with the style. A new roof was installed in September 2014. A few cosmetic improvements will make this great house sparkle. Great location. PLEASE NOTE. A privacy fence will be installed between neighbors. The white 2 car garage is not included with this property. Convenient to schools, shopping, Route 3, Blue route. Home Warranty is included.
