    What's special

    Abundant natural lightSeparate dining areaUnique walkout porchPlenty of storageBeautiful hardwood floorsOriginal oak woodworkWalk-in closets
    A charming home filled with original oak woodwork, built-ins, and beautiful hardwood floors waiting beneath the carpet. This spacious 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath home sits on nearly a double lot and includes a 24x48 detached pole building-perfect for storage, parking, or hobbies. The main level offers great functionality with a living room, separate dining area and an additional bonus room currently used as a playroom, adding flexibility for your lifestyle. Upstairs, three of the four bedrooms feature generous space and walk-in closets, and the front upper bedroom includes a unique walkout porch, a rare and charming feature that adds character and outdoor enjoyment. Both bathrooms have been tastefully updated, and the kitchen showcases quality Knapp cabinetry with abundant natural light. The dry basement expands your usable space with a dedicated laundry area, plenty of storage, and new plumbing lines already in place. A new AC unit installed in 2023, blown insulation on the west side of the home, adds peace of mind and efficiency-utilities remain surprisingly low and reasonable for the age and size of the home! Outside, the pole building offers a concrete floor, electrical service, and a ready water line, giving you options for future use. Well-built and full of potential, this property blends craftsmanship, space, and functionality in a way that's hard to find.
