Description

This wonderful Prairie Style home has been adored for over a century by all who have lived there and most recently by those who have worked there in a professional office environment. Rich with history but designed for modern living, this home offers an incredible floorplan, is in original pristine condition and is warm and inviting. The main level has trim, panels, columns and a staircase comprised of quarter sawn oak that is in perfect condition. There are hardwood floors throughout and almost all of the original light fixtures function as they did when the home was new - most notable are the many wall sconces with decorative glass shades. The original Birch kitchen cabinets with French glass doors are both beautiful and functional. The main level is light and bright and has a formal living room, a serene family room with a tile woodburning fireplace with historic stained glass window inserts on each side (the stained glass windows are negotiable), a dining room with built in barrel shaped cabinet doors, a bedroom with an attached half bath and a kitchen with a dining area.,Designed for the future, this home has spacious rooms throughout, a modern primary bedroom with a large bathroom and a walk-in closet that has an exterior door, which leads to an area that would be perfect for placement of a rooftop deck. For those that love high style and color, the primary bathroom will blow you away - it is pristine and has yellow tile with orchid accents and a hex tile floor. The other two bedrooms are large and each has a walk-in closet and have close access to the second full bathroom. Don't discount the wallpaper, it is beautiful and bold and has been professionally installed. The home and garage have hip roofs (NEW ESTATE GREY SHINGLES WIIL BE INSTALLED PRIOR TO CLOSING) and the exterior consists of Stucco with wood bands, carved wood brackets and heavy timber accents. There is on-site parking with driveways from both First Avenue and Porter Street. First Avenue has recently been redeveloped and has abundant parking, bike lanes and historical type streetlights. Within walking distance to downtown Wausau and overlooking the Wisconsin River, this multi-purpose location is ideal for those who enjoy the benefits of urban living. There has been some fairly recent exterior painting on parts of the home and window restoration and a new sewer lateral/water line were installed during the road construction process. Current zoning has allowed this property to be utilized as a professional office space which may allow for some commercial opportunities. This property would also be ideal for use as a short term rental.
