Gorgeous inside and out, this 1910 single-family townhouse is a winner! Lovingly cared for by the current owners over the last 20 years, it's small wonder that it has been included in the PLG House Tour. With its pretty limestone facade, the 1910 home is nestled on a leafy, tree-lined block. Beautifully maintained and preserved, the home retains its pre-war details: all wood moldings, doors, and window surrounds have been stripped and varnished. There are lovely glass-front built-in cabinets in the both the living room and formal dining room. The home's parlor vestibule welcomes you into the large south-facing front living room with its 11-foot-high ceilings and a bay window. There you'll find a handsome mantled decorative fireplace with twin arts and crafts glass-fronted cabinets on each side. Through this room's pocket door arch is the formal dining room with its coffered ceiling. Also on this floor is a split system for cooling in summer, with compressor cleverly hidden beneath the Trex and Ipe wood rear deck, accessed directly through the rear kitchen door.  The renovated double-galley kitchen includes stainless steel appliances: Electrolux stove/oven, Samsung refrigerator and a dishwasher. On the corresponding island peninsula/pass-through counter is a small cocktail sink and plentiful storage in the cabinets bene
