Full of character and ready to welcome its next owner, this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath Victorian offers a wonderful mix of classic style, comfortable living, and thoughtful updates. Inside, you'll find inviting living spaces plus a versatile lower-level flex space, perfect for a rec room, home office, guest space, or potential fourth bedroom. The main level is filled with the character and charm that make this home so special, featuring beautiful original woodwork, pocket doors, and timeless details throughout. A convenient main level owner's suite with a private ¾ bath. The formal dining room provides the perfect spot for gathering. Connecting the spaces is a unique walk through built-in pantry that adds both function and vintage charm. And when the temperatures cool, the cozy wood-burning stove creates a warm and inviting place to settle in and enjoy home. Follow the staircase upstairs, where you will discover two additional bedrooms and a full bath. Original details and cozy spaces give this level plenty of personality while providing a comfortable retreat away from the main-level living areas. The outdoor space is just as inviting! The large fenced backyard offers plenty of room to relax, play, garden, or entertain. Enjoy your morning coffee on the deck, gather around the fire ring on cool evenings, or pick cherries from your very own tart cherry tree. Need extra storage or workspace? The spacious utility and wood shed features built-in workbenches with plenty of room for tools, hobbies, and projects. Also large enough to house a small car if you desire.
