Property Description
This beauty was originally designed by the notable Harry S Angell for John Soma, who was a small business owner in the city and also a laborer who is said to have worked on the construction of the Old Tiger Stadium. This home has been meticulously improved for its next chapter to unfold with a new caretaker. The historic charm and character has been preserved throughout while modern conveniences have been added creating the most splendid blend of old and new. The main level flows seamlessly, has rich original wood floors and millwork, exquisite beveled glass pocket doors, stained glass accent windows, leaded glass built in cabinets and also a chefs dream kitchen. This kitchen features warm wood abundant cabinetry, classic checkerboard tile floor, sleek quartz counters, champagne bronze metal finishes, milk glass fixtures and a fancy 48 inch 8 burner double oven range. The second level has 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms and a convenient laundry space. The primary suite has a walk in closet and a spa like bathroom complete with walk in shower, freestanding tub, water closet and double vanity. Another one of the 4 bedrooms on this level also has an en suite bathroom. The third level is newly finished as yet another ensuite bedroom/bathroom with beautiful ceiling angles and built in storage. The lowest level has been designed to be a vintage, classy lounge with some original brick walls exposed, finished vinyl plank floors, a wet bar with beverage fridge and another full bathroom with a timeless clawfoot tub. Designer details are evident throughout with tin ceiling tiles, patterned wall papers & restored radiators to remind of a previous era but new forced air systems. As if this wasn't enough, 1755 W Boston has a spacious backyard with a full privacy fence, 2 car garage with electrical, additional driveway and conveniently located in the heart of everything. Seller willing to offer a 5K concession towards AC with a full price offer.
