Property Description
Welcome home to 27 Parkwood Avenue; a traditional 4 Square style home with a large bay widow and full front porch.Built in approximately 1914, this stately upper peninsula home has impeccable street appeal and is considered a contributing home to the Hampton Park Terrace Historic Neighborhood. This home is offered for sale for the first time in many decades. Built by hands long laid to rest, 27 Parkwood is a testimony to the quality of the original builders and the enduring neighborhood.Greeted by a large wide porch, set just high enough from the street, this home invites you into a large and bright foyer.Entering through the formal living room you cant help noticing how spacious the downstairs feels; with high ceilings and plenty of natural light pouring in through the front bay window.
The fireplace has not recently been used; but at some point in this homes history, the 2 downstairs fireplaces have had the fireboxes rebuilt with gas logs installed in the formal living room. Gleaming wood floors are exposed throughout this home and are in very good condition.
The living room is separated from the dining room by massive pocket doors, a common architectural feature from this period of home in Hampton Park Terrace.
The dining room itself again features a wood burning fireplace (buyer must inspect and seller makes no warranties to their operation) and ample space for a large dining room table and china hutch.
At the rear of the home, which had an addition added in its past, is a large den with custom built-ins and galley kitchen.
Out back, the rear yard is accessible through the kitchen. Of particular note is the second rear staircase leading from the kitchen to the second floor.
Upstairs, you will find 3 bedrooms - The front bedroom is large, bright and airy with its own bay window to match the main floor. This bedroom features a fireplace (nonworking) and an additional small sitting room which has traditionally been used as a closet but could be another bathroom with the right architects genius!
The middle bedroom also features a fireplace (nonworking) as well as a built in closet. The hall bathroom serves the 2 front bedrooms and is a large space which is perfectly usable, but could be reconfigured into a truly grand bathroom.
At the rear of the home is the master bedroom which is accessed through another small sitting room (this was used as a bedroom when the seller was growing up). The main bedroom itself is part of the rear addition and features 2 built in closets and it's own private ensuite bathroom.
The home has been in the same family for many decades and has always been maintained to a high standard.
Updates include new windows were replaced with Pella windows in 2008. The roof was replaced in 2015. Most recently the wiring system was replaced to remove the knob and tube wiring with a new 200 amp panel bow.
Both HVAC systems were also fitted in 2020 and the sellers had proactive work done on the foundation at this time as well to make sure the home would be ready for its new family!
This is a fabulous opportunity in Hampton Park Terrace - live in it as it is or do some remodeling to make it your own home . This home has SO much potential and will always be surrounded by similar homes of equal stature.
