The rich history of the home is evident in every corner, with heart of pine floors underfoot and furnishings that speak to the past while enveloping you in an inviting, comfortable atmosphere. Nestled on a sprawling one-acre lot, this property also features a charming guest cottage, perfect for visitors or extended family. The cottage includes a cozy main level bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen, a full bath, and a loft bedroom, offering a private retreat with all the comforts of home.
