Is there anything as charmed as an original Craftsman? We love the one at 5600 Richard Ave., near Richmond and Greenville avenues in Vickery Place. This 1,950-square-foot beauty offers lots of period details, like tall ceilings, mouldings, original fireplace, and hardwoods, with modern updates, like renovated bathrooms and a fresh kitchen. This home has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, built in 1923. A rarity for a home built in this era: there’s a detached two-car garage in back, including a workbench and cabinets.

The living room is lovely, with that original fireplace flanked by classic built-in cabinets and lots of windows for natural light. There’s a sunlit study nearby and a spacious kitchen with a butler’s pantry, lots of white cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-out to the mud room with a full-sized washer-dryer space. The master bath features two vanities, walk-in shower with frameless glass door, and a walk-in closet with built-in shelves and a dresser. The guest bath offers a claw-foot tub with classic subway tile and upgraded shower hardware.

This home was listed Jan. 21 by Laura Beazley with Laura Beazley Realtors for $505,000.

    I drove by the Cliff May house. Not a great neighborhood. Also, that whole block is full of houses that look exactly like this one.
