Description
- Description: Beautifully Updated Two-Story — Modern Comforts with Historic Charm If you love an older home with timeless character and also want the peace of mind that comes with all major updates already taken care of, this one’s for you. From a stabilized foundation, brand-new HVAC, and a replaced sewer line, to newer pull-in windows (all but five replaced, many oversized for extra light, totaling 32 throughout, and designed for easy cleaning), upgraded plumbing and electrical, and new kitchen appliances, this home offers worry-free living with all the charm you’re looking for. Add in the rare potential for even more finished living space—with over 600 sq. ft. in the attic and more than 500 sq. ft. in the basement—and a wrap-around front porch that’s as grand as it is inviting, perfect for morning coffee or gathering with friends, and you have something truly special. As you pull up, you’re greeted by fresh exterior paint, new gutters, and thoughtful landscaping. The sprawling wrap-around porch sets the tone before you even step inside—warm, welcoming, and full of character. Through the front door, natural light highlights the refinished hardwood floors—brought back in a gorgeous way. All-new, on-trend light fixtures complement the home’s character throughout. The large living room features the stunning original wood staircase, while a solid wood pocket door opens into the spacious dining room with its built-in. The flow continues into the fully remodeled kitchen with newer upper and lower cabinets, butcher-block countertops, new appliances (dishwasher, range, and garbage disposal), and brand-new LVT flooring. A stylish half bath completes the main floor. Upstairs, three bedrooms provide comfort and function, with two closets featuring automatic lighting. The very large bathroom combines timeless charm with modern updates: a new tub, new shower tile, and beadboard detailing. The upstairs landing offers its own built-in, while the rare second-story laundry station—set in a bright sunroom with a storage bench—adds everyday convenience by placing laundry right where the bedrooms are. The basement offers even more potential, with a second laundry area, storage space, and the option for additional finished living area if desired. Step outside to enjoy the fenced backyard and oversized one-car garage. The garage features fresh exterior paint and new siding plus a dedicated workspace, making it as functional as it is attractive. No detail has been overlooked: a new hot water tank, and all but one solid wood doors. New door hardware has been added where needed, while original character knobs were preserved wherever possible. If you’re searching for a move-in-ready home that combines vintage charm with modern updates, this one is a must-see—especially with over 1, 100 sq. ft. of additional space waiting to be finished to your liking.
