About This Home
This 1922 Craftsman Four Square offers timeless character with over 2,500 square feet of living space. Beautiful hardwood floors and original oak trim highlight the home's historic charm throughout. The main floor features a welcoming living room with an updated wood-burning fireplace and French doors leading to a bright sunroom. Formal dining room showcases built-in oak cabinetry and a striking stained-glass window, while the kitchen includes a cozy breakfast nook and convenient main-floor full bathroom. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms with hardwood floors and generous closet space. The primary suite has been expanded to include a sunroom sitting area and dedicated laundry space. The full bathroom retains its original tile flooring, preserving the home's classic character. The third floor offers a versatile space. The basement provides a non-conforming bedroom, exercise area, storage room, 3⁄4 bathroom, and a former tuck-under garage now serving as a workshop. Outside, enjoy a fully updated deck (2023), updated two-car detached garage with insulated doors and openers (2024), and a privacy-fenced backyard with rose bushes, a peach tree, and alley access. The seller has carefully maintained the home's original woodwork while adding thoughtful updates, including a hot water heater, gutters, storm doors, sump pump, and more.
