Stunning early-1900s grand home filled with timeless character and exceptional craftsmanship. This beautifully maintained 5-bedroom, 2-bath home features original wood trim, hardwood floors, and five original mantels. Thoughtful updates preserve the historic charm while adding modern convenience, including some updates to electrical and plumbing, efficient natural gas hydronic heat, attic fan ventilation, and a metal roof approximately 13 years old. Multiple layers of brick (solid bricking) provide excellent natural insulation year-round. A spacious front porch welcomes guests and offers a peaceful place to relax among the mature rhododendrons. Upstairs features four large bedrooms and a full bath, with one room currently used as laundry. The attic offers great bonus space with hardwood flooring and natural light. Outside you’ll find a brick garage, garden shed, spacious backyard, mature landscaping, and a beautiful sweet cherry tree.
