  • Property Description

    www.244Linden.com

    244 Linden was built in 1910 by contractors Lueke and Bopp for Frank Hamsher.  This one-of-a-kind home is part of the Linden-Kingsbury Historic District.  The very tall gabled roof of this house, descending to shelter the front veranda, was built in the particularly American style that has come to be called the Shingle Style such as the 1887 Low House in Bristol, Rhode Island.

    Throughout the years, owners of the home have made impeccable upgrades keeping with the historic value of the neighborhood.  Picture yourself sitting on one of the two large front porches (located on the 1st & 2nd floors) sipping a glass of lemonade.  The gracious entry showcases the natural woodwork created by craftsmen of yesteryear.  The formal living room has a Jotul wood-burning fireplace with built-ins.  After passing through the living room, you enter the formal dining room with a gas fireplace.  The updated kitchen has granite countertops, stone floors, stainless steel appliances and includes 2 built-in wine coolers.  The kitchen and dining room open up into a sunroom with 3 walls of windows and stone floors.  There are 2 staircases (front and off the kitchen) to the 2nd floor which houses 3 bedrooms and 2 baths.  The 2 front bedrooms have access to the 2nd floor veranda.  A large master suite with a sitting area in front of the Jotul wood-burning fireplace, custom walk-in closet and a separate wall closet.  The master suite has a private spa-like bath with double pedestal sinks and separate Pearl jetted tub and shower.  Going up to the 3rd floor, you will find 2 more bedrooms and 1 more bath.

    Step outdoors and you are surrounded by numerous perennial flower beds and a rose garden.  The patio, sidewalk and driveway have newer colored concrete. 

    Seller offering 1-year AHS homeowner warranty for buyer peace of mind.

    Don't wait long to make this historic home part of your history!
