About this home
Single Family · Built 1890 · Historic
Pretty, well-designed, and move-in ready, this home is sure to capture your heart the minute you arrive. The covered front porch provides the perfect welcoming entrance, while the newer side deck overlooks the low-maintenance yard. Cuddle up in the cozy living room that connects nicely to the formal dining room which could also serve as a home office, library, or playroom. Modernized kitchen with quartz counters, glass backsplash, and newer floor is the backdrop to the adorable sun-filled breakfast room and tucked-away updated half bath. Beyond all of that, you’ll find a wonderful coat room with additional space for hobbies, pets, or storage. Finished lower level provides an abundance of more space opportunities for your new-home needs and includes a workshop, storage, and newer hot-water on demand system. Second floor offers four full bedrooms, walk up attic, and nicely updated full bath with brand new tub and surround. Vinyl windows, newer paint, second floor laundry and touches of tender loving care in every room. A truly sweet home with space to live, play, relax, entertain, and enjoy! Look, LOVE, Live!
