Timeless Charm Meets Modern Comfort in Rock City’s Dakota School District! Step into a piece of history with this beautifully preserved two-story home nestled in the heart of Rock City — a quaint, welcoming town served by the highly regarded Dakota School District. From the moment you arrive, the expansive covered front porch invites you to slow down, and once inside, savor the craftsmanship of the early 1900s, showcased in the intricate woodwork and original hardwood floors that grace parts of the home. Inside, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms and two fully updated bathrooms — one on each level — offering both convenience and style. The oversized kitchen is a true showstopper, thoughtfully renovated with top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances and ample space for cooking, gathering, and creating memories. Entertain with ease in the formal dining room, where sliding glass doors open to a covered back patio and deck — perfect for evenings and weekend brunches. Plant lovers will adore the three-season sunroom, a light-filled sanctuary for greenery and quiet reflection. Set on a generous 0.40-acre lot, the fenced backyard offers privacy and room to roam. A charming old carriage house provides versatile space for two small to mid-sized vehicles, or imagine it as your future workshop, studio, or storage haven. With most windows replaced and thoughtful updates throughout, this home blends historic character with modern livability — a rare find in a storybook setting.
