About this home
Built in 1914, this unique home blends historic character with flexible living space and an exceptional lot size. Originally 2 adjacent homes and later combined, the layout offers versatility rarely found in homes of this era.
The upper level features two bedrooms a kitchen, and a living area currently used as a living room but easily adaptable as a formal dining space. The main living area of the second original home now serves as a spacious primary bedroom with generous square footage w/ large unfinished closet ready for customization.
The lower level adds even more opportunity, including a windowed room currently used as a non-conforming fourth bedroom, a one-car garage, and multiple storage areas. A finished and insulated room with two large windows, currently used as a craft space (not heated or cooled), provides added flexibility. Substantial unfinished space offers much potential for expansion.
Situated on a corner lot—twice the size of many nearby properties—the home features 2 driveways: one with ample parking on the SW corner and another leading to the carport and garage on the NE side. The property also offers an urban homestead feel with option to keep the existing chicken coop and flock, ideal for those who appreciate fresh, home-raised eggs. Home includes 8 fruit trees.
With 1,608 finished SF plus additional unfinished space, this property offers character, space, and outstanding potential for buyers looking to restore and make it their own.
