What I love about this home
The history of it.  It is one of two “sister houses”, built for two sisters.  Lots of space.  Beautiful staircase in the foyer.  Five fireplaces, two of which have been restored.  Woodwork on the dining room ceiling. Excellent neighborhood- quiet, safe and friendly. Great yard with two pecan trees.
