This Folk Victorian with Foursquare influence is looking for it's next lucky caretaker! East Nashville’s “Blue House” has hosted art crawls, music videos and weddings. Pools of sunlight are courtesy 6 and 7 ft tall windows. This unicorn was originally built as a true 2 story with 11 ft ceilings on main floor and 9 ft ceilings up. Pine floors, working pocket door, 5 fireplace mantels, original clawfoot tubs in bathrooms, cantilevered deck around tree, screened porch with stained glass perched over the fully fenced back yard and alley access. The front porch is ready for plants, morning coffee and happy hours with neighbors. The kitchen design is open air with windows lining entire galley wall, American clay walls, Corian and butcher block countertops, stainless appliances, gas cooking, peek-a-boo cabinet doors below a white apron sink. Rare exterior stair access in addition to interior stairwell offers rental possibility. Enormous storage in the crawl space with a unique cellar inside - lore on the street is that bootleggers used it during prohibition - horse and buggies pulled down 12th to store liquor HERE and then shops on Shelby picked it up to sell. Soldiers rented on the second floor coming back from the war. See what I mean about a unicorn with history?
