You can't mistake the traditional Tudor styling: A brick home with a steeply pitched roof, and a variety of tall windows, with the look of a storybook cottage. Here, all the exterior wood has been freshly repainted. A handsome brick walk leads to the off-center formal front entry, while a beautifully planted path dips to the back yard, furthering the storybook feeling . . . like you're dropping down into Alice's rabbit hole adventures in Wonderland*. This path takes you to a brick and concrete patio partially covered by pergola ~ overlooking a meandering, sloping expanse of garden and back lawn accessed by a sweet iron gate and brick staircase. Mature trees offer dappled shade in this pretty and private rear yard. Swept away yet? Let's go inside!
In the front door, you'll be impressed immediately by the gorgeous original oak flooring. The spacious living room with original brick fireplace mantel and a trio of 6-over-one windows offering loads of natural light flows through French doors into the dining room, another beautiful space with large windows.
Our favorite room, and perhaps it will be your's, is the sunroom with a wonderful skylight feature and a fabulous curved multi-paned window that uniquely opens inward ~ more storybook appeal! The east wall of this room is all more multi-paned windows and pretty exposed, painted brick.
The sunlit kitchen offers so many terrific features! New hand-hewn wood counter tops, a farmhouse sink, and an efficient layout that includes a pass-through bar to the butler's pantry that doubles as a small breakfast room with breakfast-bar seating and built-in cupboards.
Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms and a full bath and half-bath. The full bath features pretty beadboard wainscoting with chair rail, common in a home of this era, and pretty decorative tile. The owners' suite features a spacious sitting room with a charming little window seat and two cedar-lined closets. You might note vintage radiators here and there throughout the home, now disconnected, but adding to the historic charm of the home.
But wait...we are not finished with our interior tour!
A walk-out basement completes your living space at 502 Mitchell Avenue! The dry basement, currently used as workshop area, could easily be converted into a 3rd bedroom. The basement doors lead out to that pretty patio.
This all-brick home has been well-maintained . . . and it shows. The home had a new roof installed in 2007 and new HVAC units in 2016. Bathrooms are both updated.
Fulton Heights is one of ten Historic Districts in Salisbury but has no HOA or rules. This popular walkable neighborhood, supported by a strong neighborhood association that hosts parties, picnics, and parades, is close in proximity to downtown Salisbury's amenities including public library, unique shops, restaurants, museums and art galleries, theaters, two micro-breweries, and the new Bell Tower Green central downtown park which is currently under construction (expected completion Spring 2021).
