This cheerful 1890 Victorian has had only three owners in 133 years! Originally built for a physician who was not able to get work in a hospital because of her gender, she worked out of her home and the house received patients as well as guests. A smart and generous floor plan allows for multiple simultaneous uses of space- enjoy the warmth of the south facing sun and lively conversation in the front parlor, retreat to the living room to watch telly, have a quiet read in the sun room, or cook in the beautiful, original kitchen, you can serve up the goodies right there on the back patio! Washed in natural light through myriad long windows that stretch between floor and ceiling the interior feels luminous, spacious and accommodating. One bedroom or office and a full bathroom on the main. Three bedrooms upstairs are joined by a half bathroom and a full bathroom with an extra long clawfoot tub. Gorgeous original woodwork and original period hardware on all doors and builtins, pocket doors, and transom windows highlight the material depth and craftsmanship of this elegant home. Come bask in the light of this lovely Victorian's authentic embrace. New roof, updated electrical panel, new wiring, new interior paint throughout, stripped and spiffed original hardware throughout. Public transportation 3 blocks away, easy access to I-5 and to Lombard. Easy hop to Alberta, Killingsworth, Williams Ave and Mississippi Ave retail and restaurants.
