Ladd

1918 Southeast Ladd Ave, $650,000

This massive craftsman home is ready to be restored. Built in 1910 it has been in the same family for more than 80 years. It features a huge front porch, a grand 9x12 formal entry, stunning 7 foot pillars and impressive 10 foot box beam ceilings. The cut glass windows are among the most magnificent you will see in the neighborhood. Every room in the house is on an extra large scale including the dining room with built-in buffet, pocket doors, and the impressive pillared smoking parlor. The vintage butler's pantry is attached to the all-original kitchen with dumb waiter, laundry chute, and plenty of room for any grand remodel plans you can imagine. The effortless and impressive staircase to the 2nd floor has more craftsman details, arched plaster walls, and even more ornate window glass. On the 2nd level you'll find three large bedrooms with generous closets, a big bathroom with plenty of space for a tub & separate shower. At the end of the hall don't miss the perfectly preserved second floor sleeping porch! Up another flight of stairs on the top level is the absolutely massive unfinished attic. This huge room is ready to become more living space or maybe a sprawling primary suite. Big basement with full head height and secure parking off the alley. The location cannot be beat. So much potential, even with some simple cosmetics it could easily shine.

Matt & Lauren Score in Ladds Addition

Set the dishwasher to the party setting! Matt and Lauren are soon to be the new owners of a perfectly preserved Ladds Addition bungalow. I was able to get them inside and get their offer accepted before this gem even hit the market. I'm thrilled they will be staying in the neighborhood, they only have two blocks to move into their new home! Congrats Matt and Lauren!

We really enjoyed working with the seller on this super cute Ladd's Addition craftsman. We helped choose interior paint colors, organized to have the floors refinished, the windows washed and the yard spruced up. The details really make a difference! Call Jason McEllrath or Maureen Swan for a market analysis of your home if you are thinking of making a move.
