This incredibly unique, updated Old Town home is rich with charm and character. The expansive living room makes a memorable first impression, evoking the elegance of another era, while the spacious dining room is perfectly suited for hosting festive gatherings and holiday celebrations. An oversized hallway connects all three bedrooms and the charming bathroom, enhancing the home’s simplistic, yet grand layout. The bright, open kitchen was thoughtfully designed with period-inspired details and overlooks the beautifully maintained backyard — a private, quiet, sun-filled oasis offering exceptional peace and seclusion. A rarely available oversized detached two-car garage also features a workshop, complete with its own subpanel. Major updates include a new roof, all new windows, updated wiring, flooring, paint, and more. A rare opportunity to own a predominantly one-level home in one of Old Town’s most sought-after and desirable locations.
