If you’ve ever wanted a home with true character and a story behind it, this historic Anglo-Italianate 2-story brick beauty may be the one that speaks to you. Situated on a large, tree-lined corner lot, the home welcomes you with a deep covered front porch made for porch swings, quiet evenings, and imagining a different era. Inside, nearly 2,600 square feet showcases craftsmanship that simply can’t be recreated today — soaring 10½-foot ceilings, spacious rooms, rich hardwood floors, exposed brick accents, pocket doors, and a beautiful ornate staircase that reflects the home’s heritage. Graceful arched windows fill the home with natural light, while classic double entry doors provide a timeless first impression. Offering 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, plus a full basement with wine cellar, the home blends historic character with everyday livability. A detached 2-car garage completes this rare opportunity for the buyer who appreciates architecture, history, and a home with a story to tell.
