Wonderful 1941 Arlington brick colonial full of history and character with quality construction and timeless details is available to be renovated or expanded in the Westover Historic District (original Fostoria subdivision). Bring your contractor and make this home with real substance and soul your stroll to Westover home for life! The home has quality 1941 pre-war structural elements, full brick facade, driveway, and a deep, leafy lot to expand into. Not interested in selling it for the lot only. The house is 3 levels - including walk out basement with adequate ceiling height and ground/daylight level in the rear; House is approximately 1782 s.f. on three levels including the basement. The yard slopes to the rear, offering good drainage to protect a future finished basement. The house is forward on the lot, subject to county setback requirements a full width front porch is possible and plenty of room for a rear addition along with private rear porch/deck/patio for outdoor living. A rear addition could embrace the wooded/wild/secret garden lot behind the house. Build your own 3-4 level "tree house"! House is 3 BR's 1 full Bath upstairs (and half bath in the walk out basement). With a quick refresh/renew even without an addition, you could spruce up/re-finish the basement into a family rec room/home theater room, add new appliances and kitchen elements, refinish the beautiful long grain quarter-sawn red oak narrow plank floors - and you'd have a 3 level showplace! Then figure out your addition/larger renovation to expand and fully renovate to your tastes. House has newer gas hot water heater and furnace/AC. All information is from County tax assessment info and assumed to be correct at the time of the listing but the house is being sold completely as-is, The house is a bit dated inside needing refreshing - but should be considered more as "well preserved" with mid century and older quality details to work with and build upon. The house needs a good sprucing up inside and out, floor refinishing, some plaster work and painting, newer appliances, basement finishing, new rear deck and it would be a lovely 3BR 1.5 bath house in the walkable family haven of Westover. Then plan your addition/renovation to your personal tastes embracing the private, natural, wooded back yard. Solid 1940's brick colonial, wood burning fireplace, driveway, lovely private, wooded back yard for you to craft your own english garden or sport court, or multi zoned nature haven/formal garden.
