About This Home
Charming 1930s Cape Cod-style home situated on a rare 1.8-acre lot just minutes from the museum. It's uncommon to find this much space within city limits, offering a unique blend of privacy, nature, and convenience. This 3-bedroom home is filled with character, featuring a cozy living room with a fireplace, beautiful arched doorways, built-ins in the dining room, and a kitchen with stainless steel appliances that all stay. The finished basement provides additional living space and could serve as a family room or potential 4th bedroom. Enjoy the sunroom off the dining room, where park-like views overlook the fenced backyard, two decks, and abundant wildlife. Additional features include a storm cellar and numerous updates. Within the last five years, improvements include the roof, gutters, exterior paint, mini-split systems, tiled bathroom, exterior doors, and sunroom windows. Recent 2026 updates include fresh interior paint, new flooring, and updated light fixtures. A truly special property offering historic charm, modern updates, and an exceptional in-town setting.
