About this home
Charming brick character meets modern updates on an incredible 0.6-acre in-town lot! This gorgeous home offers 1,744 finished square feet with original charm, thoughtful updates, and an abundance of space inside and out. The main level features two bedrooms, a full bathroom, original hardwood flooring, newer hardwood flooring, and a beautiful wood-burning fireplace. Upstairs, the half-story provides a spacious primary bedroom along with attic storage.
The fully finished walkout basement adds even more living space with a modern full bathroom, Jacuzzi tub, and a great hangout area that opens directly to the backyard. Outside is where this property truly shines—a massive, fully fenced yard surrounded by mature trees, a storage shed, blackberries in the front yard, and plenty of room to enjoy, entertain, garden, or simply spread out. A detached two-car garage provides additional parking and storage.
Numerous updates add peace of mind, including a new roof in 2024, water heater in 2022, vinyl windows, newer carpet, a 2-year-old dishwasher, sump pump with battery backup, and an EV charging outlet. The home also retains its original front door from the 1930s, adding to its timeless character.
A rare combination of historic charm, modern updates, finished living space, and a truly exceptional lot—right in town....
