Description

Live in the center of it all in this totally renovated 3-story brick home in coveted Trolley Square—with a history unlike any other. This stunning residence was once the home of famed artist N.C. Wyeth during his studies at the nearby Schoonover Gallery in the early 1900s. Inside, the home is filled with natural light, highlighting beautiful hardwood floors, exposed brick, and custom millwork. The layout is ideal for modern living, featuring a large, updated kitchen with ample storage and a sophisticated dining room with custom built-ins. The home offers exceptional flexibility with a ground-floor living room (with gas fireplace), a second bedroom, a full bath, and a bonus sitting room leading to a private fenced-in brick patio. The third-floor master suite is a true sanctuary, complete with a private sitting area, powder room, laundry, and two large walk-in closets. This home is truly move-in ready, with major systems (HVAC and roof) updated in recent years. This is a rare chance to own a fully updated, comfortable, and stylish home steeped in artistic history, all in a prime city location.

The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
