A charming herringbone brick pathway leads you home, where a historic-style street lamp and welcoming front porch create the perfect setting for the quintessential downtown Sanford lifestyle. Lovingly restored and meticulously maintained, the home was honored with the 2019 Sanford Historic Preservation Award, recognizing the exceptional care taken to preserve its original character while thoughtfully updating it for modern living.
