About This Home
Step into history with this charming 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom log cabin home that perfectly blends 19th-century character with modern convenience. At 2,580 square feet, this unique property offers the rare opportunity to own a piece of the past while enjoying today's comforts.
The heart of this home beats in the cozy eat-in kitchen and dining area, featuring brand new butcher block countertops that practically beg you to roll out homemade pasta. Fresh kitchen appliances and a sleek Kraus sink and faucet make meal prep a pleasure rather than a chore. Whether you're brewing morning coffee or hosting dinner parties, this space delivers both style and functionality.
The finished basement expands your living options with its own kitchenette, living area, and office space. An exterior door provides direct yard access, making it perfect for entertaining or creating a separate workspace. Need to grab something from the yard during a basement movie marathon? No problem – just step right outside.
Car enthusiasts and hobbyists will fall head over heels for the impressive garage situation. The lower garage accommodates two vehicles and includes interior access to storage space above. Adjacent to the home sits a large barn-door garage that opens up endless possibilities for workshops, storage, or additional parking. Speaking of parking, the property can handle 10 or more vehicles, plus the space in the garages – perfect for those epic family gatherings.
Recent updates show this home has been lovingly maintained. The 40-year metal roofing provides long-term peace of mind, while the 2023 gas boiler conversion ensures energy-efficient hot water heating. The water softener and two-stage filtration system mean you'll always have clean, quality water flowing from every tap. Dual zone heating and cooling keep everyone comfortable year-round.
Fresh German siding installed in 2024 gives the exterior a crisp, updated look while maintaining the home's historic charm. Brick walkways were carefully relaid in 2025, and the landscaping received a complete refresh in July 2025, creating beautiful curb appeal that welcomes you home each day.
The location offers the best of both worlds – peaceful residential living with incredible access to entertainment and dining. This isn't just a house; it's a lifestyle choice for someone who appreciates character, space, and convenience. The combination of historic charm, modern amenities, abundant parking, and a prime central location make it a wonderful choice.
