This College Hill sweetheart has so many stories to tell! Though Columbia college closed in 1860, its legacy lives on in the name of this cherished neighborhood. Lovingly maintained by the same owners for almost 40 years, this home has been the setting for countless holidays, quiet mornings, and celebrations big & small. Every inch has been cared for with devotion. AND it shows! This home was solidly built during a time when lumber was plentiful and wood grains were tight. Maintaining its strength with a newer 50 year roof and a solid foundation, this gem is a beautiful blend of vintage charm and thoughtful modern updates. Vintage hardwood floors glow with warmth throughout the home. You will love the open and easy flow from the dining room to the wonderful rooftop deck for summer entertaining, morning coffee and eastern city views. The kitchen was professionally remodeled with custom maple cabinetry, cherry wood accents, and marmoleum flooring in keeping with the home's period style. Off the kitchen is access to the back deck, or head to the basement offering extra space for a family room and wonderful storage! A sweet old canning room makes for a perfect root cellar.Upstairs the spacious primary suite has sweet built-ins, a private bathroom, walk-in closet and a built in desk or make-up vanity. So much sunshine lights up the room through the south & western windows. Two bedrooms featuring built-ins, a skylight and large closets are ideal for family or guests. Don’t miss the special bonus room with a vaulted ceiling & sunrise views perfect for an office, nursery or playroom. Off the living room, a main-level bedroom and bathroom offer flexible use with a door to a covered back deck and a serene backyard retreat graced with professionally maintained old growth Douglas Fir trees.  Below these sentinels sits a sweet one room, bright studio with a vaulted ceiling and big windows...perfect for artists or an extra guest. This is a truly special place to call home.
