About This Home

As of December 2023

Very well maintained in town Victorian living awaits you. This beautiful 5 bedroom 3 ½ bath house has seen just 3 owners since it was built in 1920. It has retained much of its original charm with custom woodwork, original pocket doors, displaying the artisan flair to finish carpentry used 100 years ago. This home has been approved for FHA financing and displays crisp and detailed trim on the outside and a cozy, welcoming feel to every room in the house. Many upgrades have been part of this old charmer's life with 2 Pellet Stoves, the potential for an ''in-law'' apartment downstairs, and wiring upgrades throughout. This home presents varied and exciting opportunities as a single-family residence, a rental unit, an office setting, Bed and Breakfast or Airbnb. Opportunities are many. It awaits your creativity. Sellers have established an amazing maintenance record over the years and have cared for this home in a very caring and unique way. You simply don't find them like this anymore. It is well worth the look. Come, take a peek...
