Current owner Tyler Matthews says his favorite part of the mansion at the corner of North Maple Avenue and Bird Street isn’t its curved staircase, arched pocket doors, textured ceilings, or exposed brickwork – although it does. be not difficult to appreciate them.
“My favorite part of the house is the grandeur of it,” says Mathews, who bought and renovated the house with his business partner, Scott Bean. “You step in there and you are instantly amazed. “
When JT Rivers Real Estate partners Mathews and Bean purchased the property for $ 90,000 in early 2017, the two developers saw the mansion’s glory days waiting to be restored. The historic details of the house, like the arched French doors and built-in wood shelving, were in place, but the mansion was in need of infrastructure work.
“We did just about everything,” says Mathews. “We repainted, refurbished the floors, added an HVAC system.”
Climate control was one of the reasons the partners bought the house on the cheap, Mathews says. Without a central heating system, controlling the temperature in the large house was difficult.
Recently refurbished and listed for $ 299,900, the property is just waiting for someone with an appreciation of history to move in, Mathews says.
