Business Relocating! This historic all brick home is zoned R-4 and is currently being used as a commercial office space but could just as easily be used for a single family residence and is located among other single family homes and across from a law office just up the street from UTC and Erlanger hospital in the Historic Fortwood District. The property includes 2 historic cannons and alley access to surface parking for 10+ cars and also a driveway that goes from Fortwood St to the ally. The floor plan is traditional of older gentrified homes with a large foyer and tiered staircase with stately switchback, French doors to the spacious living room, French doors to the formal dining room, a work station that was probably once a butler's pantry, a kitchen with center island with raised breakfast bar, a pantry or 2 if you include the storage room off of the kitchen with access to the rear stoop/deck, an additional work room with access to the half bath and an office/den. The main level office and living room have French door access to the covered patio that wraps around 2 sides - a great feature on mild days or to entertain in and outside. There is also a ramp that leads from the parking lot up to the porch. The upper level has a large landing that could be used as a sitting area with 2 closets, an additional closet in the side hallway which has access to the second step of hidden stairs, 4 bedrooms or offices - 2 on either side adjoined by a shared full bath. One of the bedrooms has an adjoining sunroom with access to a private balcony. The 3rd level makes a great play room which is how it is utilized now for employees' children with newer carpet, a chalkboard wall and walk-out storage. The partial basement is great for storage or even a "man cave'. The building was previously owned by The American Cancer Society and since purchasing the home, the owner had Raines Brothers Construction, Inc. complete an extensive rehab in 2008 which included refinishing the hardwoods throughout, painted throughout, replaced almost all of the light fixtures, installed a new HVAC and water heater, replaced gutter, partially replaced the roof, and more.
