About This Home
Back on market with NEW 30-YEAR ARCHITECTURAL ROOF! This one-of-a-kind Victorian stunner is serving up historic charm with a twist of modern flair. Boasting 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a generous dose of personality, this gem welcomes you with an L-shaped wrap-around porch—complete with a porch swing and rockers made for sweet tea sipping and sunset chats. Inside, a grand original staircase steals the spotlight in the foyer, setting the tone for the rich architectural details and trim work galore found throughout. Glide through working pocket doors into a formal dining room and cozy living space, each featuring decorative fireplaces and 11-foot ceilings that let the light pour in. The kitchen is equal parts style and function, with granite counters, trendy wood cabinets in a statement color, and sleek stainless appliances that make cooking a delight. Hardwood floors run throughout much of the home, adding warmth and elegance. Upstairs, you’ll find three good-sized bedrooms and an updated full bath that’s fresh, clean, and ready for bubble baths or power showers. Out back, a fully fenced yard and deck await your weekend gatherings, morning coffee rituals, or impromptu dance parties under the stars. This isn’t just a house—it’s a lifestyle. And it’s ready for its next chapter. Make it yours!!
