Many important improvements have already been completed, including a newer HVAC system (2026), allowing you to enjoy the charm of an established home with the benefit of modern updates. Outside, the fully fenced backyard offers two patio areas and plenty of space to relax, entertain, or enjoy the outdoors. Solid construction, beautiful craftsmanship, abundant space, and distinctive details come together in a home that simply isn't built like this anymore. Additional updates since 2021: Upstairs HVAC replaced 2021; downstairs 2026; carpet removed from main floor and upstairs. Hardwood floors refinished. Wallpaper removed from various rooms on main floor and had majority of the whole main floor painted. Kitchen had outdated and misplaced pulls removed from all cabinets, holes filled in and painted. With the exception of a couple of blinds upstairs all were added or replaced in 2021. Vinyl flooring installed in family room and office downstairs.
