Welcome to this magnificent Victorian gem! This home masterfully blends timeless architectural charm with modern amenities, showcasing classic Victorian-era hallmarks. Step into the welcoming foyer featuring a stunning Chelsea tile fireplace, a graceful bridal staircase, and a striking stained-glass window that set the tone for the rest of the home.
