May be coming back on the market. Enjoy Spring on Springlake Way! Rare opportunity to update a special Palmer Lambdin Southern Colonial home in a prime location of the desirable Historic district of Homeland. It is peacefully perched on a gentle hill overlooking the Homeland Lakes. It features mature landscaping such as a large Magnolia and colorful azaleas. The exterior stone work is exquisite, front and rear. There are five porches including some that are screened. Its white washed brick exterior is original and must be preserved , not painted. The copper roof was replaced about six years ago. Its unique original charm and details are well preserved throughout. The hardwood floors are in excellent condition. The custom millwork is very special. There are French doors from the living room to the screened porch as well as from the primary bedroom to its front and rear porches. Its center hall features a special staircase. One of the three bathrooms has been recently renovated. The other two are very attractive vintage baths that need some plumbing replacement. The primary bedroom is large and has great views from its porches to include great views of the lakes. It has a spacious mid-century style primary bath (for 1931). The kitchen has high quality older cherry cabinets, wall oven and counter top range. The basement features a large family room with a stone woodburning fireplace and stone walls. It has an adjoining half bath, laundry and storage area. The original kitchen has been relocated to the basement. This is a manageable sized spacious, elegant and comfortable home. While it needs a little updating, lots of its components are in very good condition. It could be a good candidate for Historic restoration tax credits. The urn on the front porch and hitching post in the front yard are excluded.. This home is priced for a quick sale to settle an estate and is being offered totally "as is."
