Rarely do houses on this most beautiful Art Museum block come to market. You don't want to miss this one if you are looking in the area. This end unit property has 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. One of the bedrooms on the second floor was turned into a formal library with built-in custom bookcases, brass chandelier, crown molding, sliding doors, Juliette balcony and marble fireplace (non-functioning). This is a bibliophile's dream home. The current owner has thousands of books in this library and in the built-in book shelves in the first floor living room, also with a marble fireplace (n/f), crown molding, ceiling medallion, brass chandelier, and fluted classical columns. The marquetry hardwood floors are a special property feature. As an end unit, this house has a side yard with its own separate access in addition to a rear yard, creating one of those cozy secluded outdoor spaces. At this price point, the new owners can enhance this property with their own upgrades and improvements. House is being sold AS IS.
