Decorative fireplaceFenced backyardMetal roofEstablished flower bedsKitchen appliances stayNew eat-in areaOriginal hardwood floors

Fifty years of memories, and now it is ready for your next chapter. This 1912 Cooper-Young charmer pairs original character with real updates: original hardwood floors, a separate living room and dining room, and a decorative fireplace with gas-conversion potential. The kitchen was remodeled in March 2025 with marbled granite counters, tall cabinets for extra storage, an undermount sink and a new eat-in area; kitchen appliances stay. Exterior paint and woodwork were refreshed in 2023. Home has a metal roof, two furnaces and two central A/C systems. A finished attic-level bonus suite with full bath and skylight (approx. 729 sq ft per appraisal measurement, not included in the 1,724 sq ft above-grade living area) adds flexible space; buyer to verify all measurements. Fenced backyard, established flower beds, mudroom/laundry and a basement. Bring your vision and make it yours. Schedule your showing today!
