Attractively refurbished, with all systems updated and well maintained by the current owners, 1706 W. 42nd St. is ready for the next chapter in its history. Its past may be hidden in the years that have passed since its construction in 1925 but its heart of pine flooring, stone fireplace and period molding tell a story of family life here through the decades. Sited on a rare triple lot comprising nearly an acre, the house looks out on Hawkins Ridge, with views of the downtown that make watching July 4th fireworks from the wide front porch a summer treat. Dogwoods, maples and chestnut oaks surround the house, with ample lawn and garden areas in the front and back. Inside is a large kitchen with adjoining utility room, an open plan dining/living area, a bonus room currently used as a den, two bedrooms and a tiled bathroom with double shower off the hallway. As configured, this charming house is a great fit for a couple or small family.
