About This Home
As of February 2025Great Founder's Grove location, great condition, and a great price for this 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath 2-story home! This awesome price makes home ownership affordable. You will appreciate the wonderful porches on the front and the back. As you step, inside you will be impressed by the beautiful entry and open staircase. You will admire the charm and the warmth of the living room with the original antique fireplace. The owners have had the chimney relined so it is safe for modern day wood-burning use. There is a beautiful pocket door to the dining room that is still functional, and the dining room includes a lovely window seat. The kitchen is spacious and has hickory cabinets, plenty of counter space, and a walk-in pantry that is a pleasant surprise in a house of this age. Also, in a house from this era, it is rare to find a half bath on the main floor, an owner bath and a hall bath on the second floor as well as a full bath in the basement. The claw foot tub is an extra special bathroom feature - the original relaxing soaking tub! The second floor includes 3 very nice bedrooms and access to the walkup attic (that could be finished into extra living space). Both main levels have original fir (wood) floors that were refinished after the current owners purchased. The current owners also added central AC, replaced the roof with 40-year shingles in 1998 and replaced the furnace and AC in 2017. They removed the brick basement floor, added a concrete basement floor, a sump pump and a radon mitigation system. Previous owners had updated the electrical, the plumbing and added the vinyl siding and made kitchen and bath improvements. The yard has a recently added steel fence, and the landscaping and yard are wonderfully done with native prairie and native woodland plantings. The entire interior of the house was just professionally painted. The recent weather did not allow for the porches or doors to be painted, so the sellers are offering a $2000 credit to the buyers to have the porches painted when the weather permits.
