Leithiser House is one of the grand historic colonials in Havre de Grace! She still has every shingle of her original slate roof. The property has had no pesticides or herbicides used on it for the last 2 years. The gardens are full of native pollinators, as well as apple trees. The 3 +-+ story Spring blossoming magnolia frames the library and sunroom views, making it feel like you+GGre in the country. The third floor Owner+GGs suite will make you feel like you+GGre on staycation every day! She has a 42 point of entry state of the art alarm system, with option to connect to 911 for a small monthly fee. The second floor houses an intimate library space as well as a full bath and 3 bedrooms. The first floor houses the glorious living and dining rooms with parquet hardwood floors that are quarter sawn oak with cherry and apple inlays. We+GGre told they+GGre one of only 7 remaining floors left in the area done by a local craftsman back in the day. The living room also boasts French doors, a working/cleaned/inspected fireplace as well as custom built in bookcases. The dining room houses a gorgeous built in Colonial china cabinet. Our local locksmith was able to get the skeleton key working in it as well as several other doors in this home. The kitchen was last remodeled in the 80s and has a fun diner like vibe! You+GGll find a convenient +-+ bath off of it. The sunroom is so peaceful and cozy.
