This spectacular Freedman's cottage dating from the 1890's must be seen to be believed. In 2008 the structure underwent a studs out renovation and when the sheetrock/partition walls were removed original tongue-and-groove wood was found largely largely intact. This wood remains throughout the structure and over the following months the owner went to great lengths to preserve the historic fabric of the cottage as well as the original wood and organic paint wherever possible. The floorplan was also adapted to a more open space via a redesigned kitchen allowing ample living/dining space and a dual master bedroom setup. The house is now very energy efficient, with spray-foam insulation throughout, tankless water heater, and new HVAC system installed in 2016.Spacious front piazza offers plenty of room to relax and extra wide tabby/brick drive offers ample off-street parking for 2 cars. Numerous shopping/dining options are just a short walk or bike ride away.
