Beautifully updated while thoughtfully preserving the timeless charm of a classic 1920s bungalow, this exceptional home underwent a comprehensive gut renovation and full second-story addition in 2012. Major improvements included updated electrical and plumbing systems, new kitchen and baths, and countless modern upgrades, creating the perfect blend of vintage character and today's conveniences. The inviting first floor features a bright sunroom, gracious living room with a handsome fireplace, formal dining room, first-floor bedroom or office, and an open-concept kitchen designed for everyday living and entertaining. The expansive second floor offers a luxurious primary suite, convenient second-floor laundry, and two additional generously sized bedrooms. The partially finished basement provides excellent flexibility with a family room, office area, and abundant storage space. Step outside to enjoy the large deck with pergola overlooking the extraordinary 80' x 178' lot-an ideal setting for entertaining, outdoor play, gardening, or future expansion. A rare opportunity to enjoy the character of a historic bungalow with all the space and amenities today's buyers are seeking.
