About This Home

As of January 2025

Discover the perfect blend of historic character and contemporary upgrades in this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom home. Begin with a warm welcome on the spacious, sunlit enclosed front porch. Step inside to a foyer adorned with stained glass, unique hardwood floors, and intricate historic trim work—all impeccably preserved. The large living and dining areas flow seamlessly into a stunningly updated kitchen, complete with heated tile floors, stainless steel appliances (included), granite countertops, and a convenient updated half bath just behind it. Originally designed with four bedrooms, the upper level has been reimagined to offer an expansive primary bedroom. The remodeled full bathroom includes a spacious vanity area. Enjoy modern amenities, including efficient boiler heat with historic radiators, ductless air conditioning, newer windows on the first and second floors, glass block windows in the basement, and a 200-amp electric service. There is also a full, unfinished attic. Outside, the concrete driveway leads to a fully fenced backyard, featuring a two-car detached garage complete with generator plug, wiring for a hot tub, natural gas plumbed underground for a grill, and a maintenance-free Trex deck—ideal for relaxation or entertaining. Located within walking distance to all the Village has to offer. This home is truly a gem, combining timeless elegance with thoughtful modern touches. Showings begin immediately, with delayed negotiations until Wednesday 11/20 at Noon.
