Rich in character and history, this remarkable home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of the community’s story while creating a vision all your own. Inside, you’ll find over 3,000 square feet of living space filled with historic charm, including exposed brick, wide-plank wood floors, multiple fireplaces, and distinctive details that simply cannot be replicated in a newer home. Bring your imagination and design inspiration to transform this historic gem into your dream property.

The detached garage offers even more opportunity, featuring a spacious addition that provides an ideal workshop, studio, or creative space.
