About This Home

As of October 2021

This home is full of architectural details that you don't find everyday. The beautiful front porch is there for your enjoyment. When you walk through the front door you will find a large living room to enjoy gatherings. Formal dining room with wainscoting and crown molding. A beautiful updated kitchen and bathroom.
Going up the beautiful staircase from the living room leads to the 4 lovely bedrooms which one has a window seat so you can read or just look out the window.
The beautifully landscaped rear fenced in yard has a deck and an area that you can put a fire pit to enjoy. Most windows have been replaced. The fireplace is non functional but retains its charm with a built-in mirror and original tile surround. A quick fix would bring it back to life. There are so many updates to this home that there is a list with the disclosures.
