Classic charm meets comfortable living in this exceptional brick Dutch Colonial, set on a beautifully landscaped 72' x 140' city lot in a coveted location. From the moment you arrive, the gracious full-width covered porch sets the tone for a home filled with warmth, character, and timeless architectural detail. Inside, generously proportioned rooms feature beautiful hardwood floors, custom built-ins, window seats, bookcases, crown moldings, panel doors, and countless details rarely found in newer construction.
The thoughtfully renovated kitchen combines solid cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, and custom woodworking, creating a warm and inviting gathering space. Ceramic tile baths complement the home's classic appeal. Outside, the property becomes a private retreat with mature gardens, established landscaping, a covered patio, and an in-ground pool with pool house--perfect for entertaining or simply enjoying your own backyard oasis. The windows have been replaced - double pane vinyl windows throughout.
Ideally located near schools, houses of worship, shopping, and major highways, this distinctive home offers the space, craftsmanship, and setting today's buyers are seeking--with the character that simply cannot be replicated. A truly special opportunity to own a classic home with room to live, entertain, and enjoy for years to come.
