BACK ON THE MARKET after a few more improvements were made! Built in 1920 and thoughtfully updated, this stunning single-level home blends timeless character with modern updates. The grand hallway stuns with 15+ foot ceilings, thick crown moldings, and interior transoms that bathe every room in natural light — a detail rarely found today. The hardwoods tell the story of this home — refinished to perfection yet holding fast to the deep, honeyed patina of their 100-year history. The primary suite features a private en-suite bath, while two additional bedrooms and a flexible office/den share a beautifully updated full bath. The kitchen shines with butcher block countertops and all new stainless appliances. Dedicated laundry room and new tankless water heater round out the updates. Fresh paint inside and out and meticulous original detail make this home truly move-in ready. The deep, flat lot and wrap-around porch complete this special home — you don't find a home like this, it finds you!
