Description

Looking for something that doesn't look like every other house on the block? This charming 1912 gem sits on a quiet dead-end street and is packed with character from the moment you walk in. Think stunning original woodwork, cozy window seats, and all the historic details you just don't find anymore blended seamlessly with the updates you want today. The remodeled and expanded kitchen is perfect for real-life living, and the refinished woodwork throughout keeps the home's vintage charm shining. Need flexible space? You've got it three bright solariums/bonus areas plus a sunny porch off the primary bedroom, ideal for working from home, curling up with a book, or creating your own peaceful retreat. There's even a finished attic for guests, hobbies, or extra storage. And most recently, beautifully refinished, original hardwood floors throughout. Major updates give you peace of mind for years to come: new roof (2023), furnace (2024), A/C (2025), insulated windows, and gorgeous cedar siding that boosts curb appeal. If you love homes with soul, warmth, and a little bit of magic this one's truly one-of-a-kind. Come see how historic charm and modern comfort come together perfectly!
