205 S Gage Street Meet me somewhere in time. From horses proudly pulling the buggy of the small town doctor that built this gem down the lanes of the newly formed town, to the hustle and bustle of our modern age, this house has weathered the test of time and safely sheltered it's occupants through the century and beyond. You want to see inside this house-don't you? So, Step Back in Time-But but bring your modern ideas with you. Every corner of this magnificent Victorian masterpiece whispers history as it combines turn-of-the-century elegance with endless potential. The sprawling front porch-complete with a classic buggy step-invites lemonade-sipping afternoons and neighborly chats. Once inside and you'll be greeted by huge rooms, 10-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, and ornate trim work-they don't make 'em like this anymore! Natural light pours through oversized windows and charming bay windows, dancing across the intricate woodwork and original glass-pane pocket doors. In the dining room, a regal cast iron fireplace anchors the room, while a built-in mirrored credenza adds Gatsby-level glam to the dining space. Don't miss the secret staircase-a delightful nod to the past, originally for the maid to use, it's ready to fuel your imagination. You'll find surprises at every turn, from the cozy sun porch perfect for plant lovers and readers, to the antique light fixtures casting a warm, golden glow. And oh, don't forget the attic! More than just storage, this light-filled sanctuary features a wood-burning stove, a widow's watch window, and enough space for an escape from your modern day stresses, an artist or exercise studio, or a fabulous master suite! This home offers flexibility for MULTI-GENERATIONAL with a second entrance in the back and TONS of space upstairs with a full bath and a large second kitchen which could be transformed into a modern day Master Suite with bath and upstairs laundry. A covered carport keeps you and your buggy (or SUV) out of the elements, plus a two car attached garage, and the big backyard is ready for gardens, gatherings, or a Victorian croquet match. Homes like this don't come around often-steeped in character, brimming with charm, and loaded with possibilities. Whether you're a preservationist, a dreamer, or just someone who loves a good secret staircase, this Victorian gem is ready to welcome you home.
