1313 Grainger Avenue

This charming 3,600 square foot Queen Anne cottage has been a single family home since its construction in 1888, except for a time when it is alleged to have served as a house of ill repute. Renovation by its current owner took advantage of its original well-preserved molding, trim, mantles and under window panels. Some of the door hardware shows elaborate brass scroll work.  Original brass light fixtures still hang in the dining room and front bedroom. To the left of the entrance hall, functional pocket doors open into the living room. A formal dining room is situated between the living room and a very functional modernized kitchen. Off the kitchen is an enclosed deck tastefully hidden on the back of the house.  An exquisite pine paneled stairway leads to the second floor with its two bedrooms, bath and spacious open sitting area.
