A 5-bedroom, 2-bath single family residence in Rome.

Wonderful 5 bedroom/2 bath Craftsman-style home located Between the Rivers in historic downtown Rome.

It's loaded with character and classic details including a wide front porch...10' ceilings...deep crown moldings and wide baseboards...gorgeous hardwood floors (upstairs as well as down)...3 fireplaces (decorative)...nice natural light provided by huge windows (most of which are Anderson double pane)...built-ins...transom windows...and even a working vintage hand-turn doorbell. The MAIN FLOOR includes a large living room with a fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases...a dining room that comfortably seats 12+ and has french doors leading out to the side patio...a spacious den with fireplace...a big, terrific eat-in kitchen with stainless steel appliances, custom cabinets, an island with cooktop, wall oven & microwave, Corian countertops and a walk-in pantry...a great butler's pantry just off the kitchen...two good-sized bedrooms...and a full bath. A staircase off the center hallway leads UPSTAIRS to three large bedrooms, a big, bright bonus room that could be a home office, playroom or additional bedroom and a full bath. A second-floor ATTIC is easily accessible from the front bedroom and offers abundant storage space or room for expansion, if desired. The GROUNDS, accessed by rear stairs off the back porch, include a big backyard with a garage-turned-workshop and encompass property to the right of the driveway closest to Broad St. This is a rare and special, move-in ready home located in one of Rome's most coveted locations.
