About This Home
Welcome to this storybook 4-bedroom, 1-bath Folk Victorian offering approx. 1,600 sq ft of light-filled living space. From the moment you walk through the door, you'll be greeted by soaring ceilings, a grand staircase, and vibrant stained glass windows that fill the home with color and character. The main level boasts a spacious 28x15 living room perfect for entertaining, a bright kitchen/dining area with solid surface countertops, a serene main-floor primary bedroom, and a full bath featuring a classic clawfoot tub (there's also potential to add a second bathroom!). Upstairs, discover three more generously sized bedrooms - one featuring a cozy reading nook. Throughout the home, you'll find beautiful original woodwork, built-in bookcases, and some original hardwood floors, blended seamlessly with thoughtful updates. Most windows have been replaced while preserving historic charm. Outside, the property is wrapped in lush privacy hedges and offers a 1-car detached garage with workshop and attic storage. The full basement provides even more room for hobbies or storage. Located in a desirable area with outstanding curb appeal, this home is a rare find for those who appreciate history, craftsmanship, and comfort!
