Surround yourself with charm, character, and history in this one of a kind East Walnut Hills home. Designed by renowned Cincinnati architect Gustave W. Drach and built in 1892, this beautifully maintained Victorian Queen Anne style home features high ceilings, large porches, stained glass windows, hand-carved woodwork, hand-painted murals, nine fireplaces, and an elevator! You'll enjoy a true chef's kitchen with customized cabinets for ample storage. Situated on almost a half-acre, the private backyard can be enjoyed from the comfort of your covered porch. Over the last 20 years, the current owners have completed the hard work, adding central air and modern high-efficiency boilers, replacing 50 drafty windows with modern thermal pane insulated glass, rebuilding both the front and rear porches, restoring the Buckingham slate roof and four masonry chimneys, and adding copper gutters, valleys and downspouts, a complete kitchen remodel, finishing the attic and adding a third full bath, remodeling another bathroom and adding a modern laundry facility on the second floor, and most recently, refinishing the entire exterior with 25-year Rhino Shield ceramic paint (with transferable warranty). Altogether, over $750,000 has been invested into restoring this historic home. Now it is ready for you. Come be a part of this welcoming neighborhood where fellowship & celebration bring neighbors together!
