For Sale: 1901 Squire Park Victorian

November 13th, 2007 @ 12:58 am by Cliffe | Sorted Historic Buildingsborder
I had a chance to tour this recently remodeled 1901 Victorian not far from my house. It’s located in the Central Area’s Squire Park neighborhood, which I can compliment because I live there, right? The interior is very nicely done while the exterior looks a bit drab (faux stone chimney anyone?). It’s going for $579,000 and in this market I would not be surprised if this dropped further. If you’re interested, check out the listing and speak with Peter Olive. Maybe I’ll be welcoming you to the neighborhood and baking you a pie. Enough about pie, let’s get straight to the images.

Though you can’t see the faux stone chimney I referred to, you can tell that this house has charm. Rose bushes populate the landscaping. View of the side of the home and driveway. The siding could benefit from a more natural look.

The small back yard features a storage shed, garden area, and patio. Mature ivy growth gives the area a nice rustic feel. As you enter the home the stainless steel appliances along with some very nice custom-looking cabinetry make for a modern yet classic kitchen.

The front living room has signature Victorian windows along with some very nice crown molding. Stepping back a few feet renders a view of the dining room with living room in the distance.

Heading upstairs you’ll find this classy bathroom. The wainscoting and shade of green make this bathroom a total winner. A slightly more suspect shade of peach greets you in the bedrooms. As with most of the home, the remodel detail work is top notch, however.

    I hate how it is updated on the inside. Takes the fun away. Isn’t that asking price a bit too high for that size or are Seattle’s real estate prices as outrageous and ridiculous as Chicago’s?

    $350 per square foot is pretty much par for the course in this particular area. Nothing is moving, however.
