740 12th Street

Step into history with this gorgeous home built in 1925 and nestled in the prestigious lower Chautauqua area. Making only its second appearance on the market, this gem is set on a spacious .29 acre lot surrounded on three sides by a charming stone wall. The stately exterior welcomes you to a home brimming with character, featuring leaded glass fan light and side lights (windows) around the front door, original built-ins and woodwork, gleaming refinished hardwood floors, new interior paint and an abundance of natural light from the large original double-hung windows. With 4 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, a beautiful staircase off the foyer, large formal living and dining rooms, upper and main level sunrooms, and two-brick fireplaces, this home offers both comfort and elegance. Outdoors, you'll find a grapevine-draped arched arbor, multiple outdoor spaces, and a delightful playhouse. The 2-car tandem garage and additional parking in back make this property a rare find in the neighborhood. Just a couple blocks from historic Chautauqua Park and trails, and close to Flagstaff Mountain, University Hill, HWY 36, and 93, this location offers easy access to both nature and city amenities.
