About This Home
As of July 2024Timeless Allure / No Worries If, like me, you love older style homes the personality in delightful surprises, the quality, the character brought to bear in delivering function with appeal then you're going to fall in love with this incredible home! A charming 11/2 story design with dormers, this 4 bedroom, 21/2 bath home offers 2 floors of living with every room spacious. The unfinished basement provides storm shelter and offers abundant storage plus room for a shop. The roof, high efficiency central heat and AC unit, water heater, wiring and much of the plumbing have all been recently updated, eliminating any worries that might come with an older home. All seen to and secure. But let's look at details inside. Lovely wood floors and an open staircase; crown molding and a stately fireplace mantle all the original woodwork has been carefully maintained, preserving the fine character for generations to come. The extraordinarily roomy, thoroughly updated kitchen has plentiful cabinets and countertop workspace. Beautiful! One end accommodates a roomy informal dining area for family meals. Then, near the kitchen is a generous formal dining room, a full bath, main floor laundry room and a large bedroom with its own 12' X 12' bonus room which together could be gracious accommodations as guest quarters. But I'm afraid I'd be just too tempted to claim the tucked-away bonus room for myself such a great music room or library or nice office, or perfect sewing and crafts room! Ah, but hold on Upstairs more surprises await your discovery. A huge master bedroom, another spacious bedroom plus a 3rd upstairs room with wet bar makes such a cool hangout but can easily be utilized as another bedroom. A 2nd full bath is upstairs, plus an oversized walk-in hall closet large enough for one side to also serve for a student's homework/ computer desk. The wrap-around porch complete with a porch swing is perfect for enjoying the quiet neighborhood. This extremely charming home is fresh, roomy (1,925 sq. ft.) completely restored, updated and absolutely beautiful! No worries here not even for the price. Amazingly affordable, at just $85,000. So hang onto your money; let go of your worries and call your favorite Realtor today! You will love the location, blocks away from schools, parks, and the library! This home has all the updates needed so you don't have to worry about a thing. The roof was replaced in 2009 and it is a 30 yr Heritage roof, neutral paint inside and out, original wood floors, crown molding and trim, that has been beautifully maintained! The seller's installed a top of the line fireplace insert, complete with a temperature controlled blower and Chimney cleaned in 2010. There is a whole house fan, and high efficiency heat/air unit installed in 2006 with a humidifier and ultraviolet air cleaner. All appliances stay, including the Refrigerator! Enjoy the Screened Sun porch on east side perfect for entertaining and watching the sunrise in the mornings. Don't worry about over grown trees and landscaping, it is all ready taken care of for you. The rod iron fence installed in 2010, and the home Inspection completed in 2009 reports a structurally sound and well maintained home.
