***Note: At some point many, many years ago, a two-story side porch (10' wide by 27' deep) on the west side of the house was enclosed to create additional finished living space. It's primarily a den & library on the main level and office space on the second level. The workmanship on that porch enclosure project was not done correctly (a prior owner's project). As a result of the workmanship on that project, there is water damage to the old side porch's structural components. In the "document" section of this listing, there's a property survey where the subject area is "red lined" for better reference along with much more information. The buyer should plan on repairing the 10' X 27' enclosed space off the west side of the original house and check with their lender about the situation (if financing is being obtained as part of the purchase).
With the extraordinarily wide lot of 105' (extremely rare in the town on such an amazing street), it makes much more sense for the next owner to add something more dramatic off to the west side of the original house structure. It doesn't make sense for the current (downsizing) owners to rebuild that enclosed space to the existing dimensions. So, the owners are selling "As-Is". The subject enclosed side porch has exterior bracing added (some exterior photos show it).
This is a truly exceptional opportunity to take this hallmark property to the next level!
