Description

Lovely raised 3/1.5 home in EEHD. Question about actual date of house Cad has it built in 1896, previous sellers and refrences claim 1907 .The Thomas Bollinger family maintained ownership until 1948, when they sold to Alice A. Mullen who owned the property until 1987. Because the property has so few owners, the house has managed to stay largely intact and retains most of its original design. Architecturally, the house represents the transition between High Victorian and Queen Anne. Double galleries, lots of light walk thru windows artistically crafted wood floors add to its charm. The home boasts an updated kitchen and upstairs bath. The 1/2 bath downstairs could easily incorporate a shower (in fact a shower fixture and tile for the project will stay with the house they are the same fixtures as the upstairs bath). An anamoly in a historic home is that all windows open! Appliances and rug in upstairs bedroom conveys. Fenced in yard. Walkable to most of the Island finest attractions!
