About This Home
As of September 2023This Historic Old Town cottage is tucked into its setting along Union Street just steps from the downtown vibe. This 1-story Victorian cottage built in 1910 has incredible 12' ceilings that feel SO spacious. Original six panel wood doors, transom windows, bead board, picture rails, beautiful vintage light fixtures, just to name a few historic details. You are in easy walking distance to all the downtown restaurants, historic parks, music venues, library and waterfront. All the best architectural features indicative of a turn of the century home lives very comfortably with two generous size bedrooms and two bathrooms. The sunroom toward the rear of the house offers an area for a home office, if desired. There is plenty of room for the placement of an island in the kitchen or an eat-in cafe table and chairs. There is a little nook designed for afternoon calmatives or beverage service too. The heart pine floors are truly beautiful in every room. While the yard space is minimal, it has been designed for outdoor living enjoyment with enough planting area to satisfy your horticultural exploits. Carefree living! The rear patio area and landscaped garden offers a terrific opportunity to entertain friends and relax at the end of a day. There is also a detached workshop and shed. Permanent angled walk up stairs to second floor offers possible opportunity for expanded living space. Owner has provided a history of all the improvements and restoration completed on the property during their ownership.
