Where historic charm meets beautifully updated living! Built in 1897, this impressive 2,400 sq. ft. home has been thoughtfully rehabbed from top to bottom while preserving the craftsmanship and character that make historic homes so special. Original hardwood floors, detailed trim, built-ins, pocket doors, and the original staircase add warmth and timeless appeal throughout.
The completely renovated kitchen features new cabinetry, flooring, countertops, and stainless-steel appliances, creating a stylish and functional gathering space. Main-floor laundry adds everyday convenience. Upstairs offers three large bedrooms plus a dedicated office, all with new carpet and plenty of room to make each space your own.
Major updates include a newer roof, siding, furnace, air conditioning, and water heater, providing peace of mind for years to come. Outside, enjoy the welcoming covered front porch, spacious backyard deck perfect for relaxing or entertaining, and a handy storage shed. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy the beauty and craftsmanship of an 1897 home without taking on the work of a renovation. Move-in ready and waiting for its next chapter!
