About This Home

This charming two-story home offers the perfect blend of historic character and thoughtful updates, featuring 3 BEDROOMS with one conveniently located on the main level. From the moment you arrive, the inviting curb appeal welcomes you with a COVERED FRONT PORCH and classic architectural design that reflects the home's timeless appeal. Inside, beautifully preserved original HARDWOOD FLOORS extend throughout much of the home, complemented by tall baseboards, wide trim, and elegant details that showcase true craftsmanship. The inviting dining room is filled with natural light from oversized windows, creating a bright and welcoming space ideal for everyday living or entertaining. The home offers both a formal dining room and an eat-in kitchen, providing flexibility and functionality. A standout feature is the original BUILT IN HUTCH and coffee bar area, offering abundant storage with upper and lower cabinets, drawers, and display shelving. This stunning built-in blends vintage charm with everyday practicality, creating a unique focal point rarely found in modern homes. The bathrooms have been tastefully updated with modern finishes, including a beautifully tiled tub and shower surround that extends to the ceiling and built-in shelving for added convenience. Major mechanical updates provide peace of mind, including double-hung windows approximately 10 years old, HVAC system replaced in 2014, and a roof that is approximately 6 years old. Additional features include a one-car detached garage, FENCED YARD, and functional layout designed for comfortable living. This home presents a wonderful opportunity to own a property filled with character, warmth, and lasting value.
