Have you ever dreamed of living in a charming historic cottage on a spacious corner lot in downtown Belleville? Nestled in the Hexenbuckel Historic District, this beautifully restored 1839 home perfectly blends timeless character with modern updates. It will have you falling in love the moment you arrive.
Step inside through the antique double doors to the open living room, featuring a beamed vaulted ceiling, brand new flooring that continues into the kitchen, and a Mid Century Modern cone-style wood burning fireplace that creates a warm and inviting focal point. Throughout the rest of the home, you will find fresh paint, two bedrooms, and an updated full bath. The primary bedroom is graced by a period fireplace, showcasing timeless craftsmanship.
Major systems have recently been updated, including a Woods Basement Water System for added protection and peace of mind. The open basement includes a washer and dryer, and a sink and toilet offering potential to finish into a convenient half bath. New roof in 2024.
Enjoy your morning coffee on the covered porch, overlooking a fully fenced yard that provides privacy and excellent curb appeal.
