“Though the home dates back to 1868, it was extensively restored by the previous owner with modern amenities,” said listing agent Richard Ellis, “What makes it so special is the preserved original period details you will find at every turn like the original crown moldings, restored pine floors, and fireplaces including a Victorian mantel with original Victorian ceramic Minton tiles from the late 1800s.  Actor Bill Murray once lived here while he was building and renovating the house he’d eventually move into in Snedens Landing.”
