About This Home

As of April 2025

Don't miss this lovely Victorian house located on a desirable "tree street" four doors down from Nassau! Charmingly quaint on the outside this house features a tasteful fusion of the old and the modern on the inside. Fully renovated and move-in ready, this light-filled,comfortable and lovingly-maintained house will make you want to linger. The first floor features a comfortable living room that opens into a formal dining room with an enticing bay window. Through the eat-in kitchen featuring beautiful granite counter tops, is a full bathroom with laundry. The second floor is made radiant by its newly-installed shiny, wide-plank hickory hardwood floors. The three bedrooms are awash in light and have just the right combination of comfort and character to make for a lovely, warm living experience. The hidden gem of this house is to be found on the attic floor. An unassuming staircase leads up from the second floor, but you might do a double take when you see the space that opens up when you reach the top. The attic has been renovated in recent years and turned into a large, studio-style space complete with a hardwood floor, a stunning arch window, and a cavernous closet/storage area that is likely to fulfill any family's reasonable storage needs. Hide up here with a book, spend time with friends, or make this your bedroom ? this large beautiful room can take on any challenge! With new windows, newly installed high-efficiency air conditioners, and new beautiful porches (front and back), this house is joyful, airy and full of light. Don't miss it!
