A unicorn, never-before available on the open market! This enchanting 1925 Storybook Cape Cod is a true Yellow Springs classic, & is so charming & SO conveniently & centrally located--just a few blocks from the college, Glen Helen, Gaunt Park, & downtown--that it has never had a chance to go public on the MLS, until now. According to a 2022 article by author Celeste Perron, "A storybook house is a quaint style of architecture known for its cottage-inspired sloping roof, turret, and other fanciful features. Also called fairy-tale homes, they essentially look like a family of elves or maybe Snow White herself would answer the door if you knocked. Although these houses evoke visions of the European countryside, this style is wholly American—specifically, Hollywood in the 1920s. At that time, soldiers had recently returned from Europe after World War I, and those who went to work in LAs’ film industry often built sets inspired by the villages they saw in England, Belgium, & France." She continues: "A storybook house might provoke a strong reaction among potential home buyers—those who crave expansive, light-filled rooms or a sleek modern style won’t take to the small scale and specific aesthetic of these houses. But people looking for a cozy and fanciful home will be smitten." Interestingly enough, this property has the best of both worlds, with large windows in each room, including every room in the walkout basement. Also, previous owner added a sunny & spectacular 18'x15' great room, with 17 casement windows, 2 new skylights (2014), & a full glass door, alongside a large N/W facing side deck. Two generous light-filled, 1st-fl BRs & 1st-fl full bath. Upstairs owner's suite has its own door at the top of the stairs, plus full BA with soaking tub & stained glass moonscape. Full-sized 20KW Kohler Gas Generator (2020). Previous pond with "waterfall hill" can be recreated or filled in, as desired. Nooks, crannies, interesting built-ins, & storage galore. A must-see!
