It is undeniable that old homes have charm. Victorians, bungalows and cape cods have a certain feel that you just don't get in new colonials and split levels. Old homes, however often have old electrical or plumbing systems and a lack of the modern comforts we demand. My listing at 4305 Gallatin Street in Hyattsville, Maryland has the best of both worlds.
The original, Victorian home was built in 1909. In 2001, a fire destroyed the home down to the foundation. The current owner is a contractor who bought the home and rebuilt it to represent its original grandeur. The home boasts many of the features of Victorian architecture like a large front porch and tall ceilings, yet has new electric, plumbing, heating and air conditioning. This home is perfect for someone who loves the feel of an old home but doesn't want any of the head ache. The home is priced at $549,900.00.
