Charming 1940 Model Show Home on Nearly an Acre | Heated & Cooled 24' x 40' Garage | Timeless Character.
Originally built in 1940 as a Model Show Home, this charming bungalow has been lovingly maintained by the same family for the past 47 years and beautifully blends original craftsmanship with thoughtful updates. Situated on nearly one acre, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers timeless character with the potential to convert into a 3-bedroom, 2-bath home.
From the moment you arrive, you'll appreciate the home's inviting curb appeal, highlighted by professionally designed landscaping by Buschkoetter's Nursery and the original arched solid wood front entry door. Inside, you'll fall in love with the original hardwood floors that run throughout the entire home, beautiful original woodwork, original trim and baseboards, graceful arched doorways, and solid wood interior doors, several of which still feature their original crystal glass doorknobs. The stunning arched front entry door welcomes you into a home filled with warmth, history, and timeless craftsmanship. The inviting living room is anchored by a cozy gas fireplace, while plantation shutters and custom window treatments add warmth and elegance throughout.
The spacious primary bedroom is conveniently located on the main floor and features custom built-in closets and storage. Upstairs, you'll find a generously sized second bedroom, additional space with the potential for a third bedroom, and two full-length attic areas offering abundant storage or future expansion possibilities.
The kitchen is both functional and inviting, featuring a built-in center island that's perfect for meal preparation, entertaining, or gathering with family and friends. Newer appliances, a brand-new dishwasher, washer, dryer, and a water softener are all included. Central heating and air conditioning provide year-round comfort.
The partially finished basement offers additional living space that's perfect for a family room, recreation room, home office, or media room. It also includes a cold canning cellar and a separate wood storage room, providing exceptional storage and functionality, plus an additional shower.
Step outside to enjoy the low-maintenance Trex composite deck overlooking the spacious backyard. One of the property's most impressive features is the 24' x 40' detached four-car tandem garage, which is fully heated and air-conditioned for year-round comfort. Complete with front and rear overhead access doors, a built-in workbench, a built-in kitchen/work area, and full-length attic storage above, this incredible space is ideal for woodworking, vehicle restoration, hobbies, canning, or anyone needing a versatile workshop with drive-through convenience.
Beyond the garage, you'll also find an additional 12' x 24' storage building, providing even more room for tractors, lawn equipment, gardening tools, outdoor equipment, and seasonal storage.
Built during an era when homes were crafted to last, this is a quality, solidly built home with the original craftsmanship, character, and attention to detail that are increasingly difficult to find in today's construction. Lovingly cared for for nearly five decades, this one-of-a-kind property offers the perfect blend of timeless charm, functionality, and opportunity. Whether you're looking for a move-in-ready home or one with room to grow, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special home.
