About This Home

Built in 1889, this Folk Victorian is brimming with charm, space, and potential! With more than 2,500 square feet on the main and second floors, you’ll find room after room filled with character. The foyer greets you with a sweeping grand staircase, while a second staircase tucked off the kitchen adds everyday practicality. Pocket doors open between the main level rooms, showcasing detailed original woodwork that flows throughout. The parlor boasts an inlaid hardwood floor—just one of the many period touches waiting to be admired. The main floor also features a living room, dining room, breakfast nook alongside the kitchen, a 3/4 bath with dual sinks, and the convenience of main floor laundry. Upstairs, you’ll find 5 bedrooms plus a cozy sleeping porch. Outdoors, the stone patio sets the stage for gatherings, while the oversized 2-car detached garage provides ample parking and storage. This home will need some updates and a roof, but the historic details and generous spaces make it a rare opportunity. Once a true showpiece at the turn of the century, it’s ready for a new owner to restore its beauty and make it spectacular once again.
