A piece of Vernon history. In 1912 O.B. Hatchard was a well respected architect of his time. He chose Vernon as his hometown and selected this prominent position on East Hill to be the place to make his own personal statement and build his dream home. The inside is that of an Edwardian home with the interior space being larger and somewhat more gracious than his title for the design as his "Sussex Bungalow" suggested. The home maintains the formal grandeur of the times with high ceilings, original doors and woodwork, hardwood flooring and more. On the main floor you have the formal living room, dining room, a large parlour, a bright kitchen and the family room (a later addition to the home). The master bedroom has a 3 piece ensuite and walk-in closet while the other bedroom on the main has a 2 piece ensuite. Upstairs (which didn't exist before the '80's) you will find two smaller bedrooms. The basement is mostly undeveloped but could have a nice rec/media room. Please note that the home has not been renovated/restored and will need a good amount of love to bring it back to its full potential. There is alley access from both sides of this large (.459 acre) lot and zoning allows for a carriage house to be built. If you are looking for a grand old home on a huge city lot in one of Vernon's best neighbourhoods put this home on your list. It will require a commitment to bring it back to its former self but the end reward will be worth it. (id:2493)
