1886 character. Modern infrastructure. If you dreamed of owning a historic home but have been intimidated by the cost and work that often come with one, take a closer look. Behind the character of this 1886 home is an extensive renovation that addressed many of the expensive projects buyers worry about most in an older property. This spacious 4 bed, 2 bath home offers 2,279 square feet and has undergone a remarkable transformation. The home received all new electrical and plumbing, an upgraded electrical panel, new water heater and new central heating and air conditioning. A completely new duct system was installed on the second floor and the home features two HVAC units, one dedicated to each level for greater comfort and efficiency. A whole home water filtration system was also added. Inside, the renovation went far beyond cosmetic updates. The original lath and plaster was removed and replaced with new drywall throughout and the drop ceilings on the main floor were removed to restore the original ceiling height and character. Walls and ceilings were freshly painted and the beautiful original woodwork was carefully refinished. The home previously had no kitchen, allowing a completely new kitchen to be created from the ground up with new stainless appliances. The wall between the kitchen and dining room was opened to create a more connected layout and a large picture window was added to the dining room for abundant natural light. Both bathrooms are new and all flooring on the main level has been replaced. And most recently, the home received a new roof in 2026. The exterior still provides an opportunity for its next owner to make cosmetic improvements and add their own finishing touches, but do not mistake unfinished exterior cosmetics for an unfinished renovation. Much of the costly, disruptive work involved in modernizing a 140 year old home has already been completed.
