This stunning 4–5 bedroom historic home offers over 3,100 square feet of living space and showcases beautiful original woodwork throughout, including refinished hardwood flooring and classic built-ins. The main level features a welcoming living room with fireplace, formal dining room, eat-in kitchen with large walk-in pantry, half bath, and a den just off the front door that is ideal for a home office or study. A covered front porch with swing adds to the home’s charm, while the rear partially enclosed porch overlooks the backyard.
The covered attached carport opens to a patio area and an expansive backyard that extends 214 feet to Hickory Street, offering ample space for outdoor activities or the potential addition of a garage. The full unfinished basement is accessible from both the interior of the home and the carport, making entry during inclement weather convenient. The basement includes a workshop area and provides abundant storage.
The second level offers three bedrooms, with a fourth bedroom currently converted to second-floor laundry, a primary suite with private bath, and an additional full bathroom. The finished third level adds a large recreation room and an additional bedroom. In total, the home features 4–5 bedrooms and 2.5 baths.
Notable updates include refinished floors and woodwork in 1997, plumbing and electrical updates in 1986, replacement windows in the kitchen and bathroom in 1986, re-glazing of all but three windows in 2021, chimney replacement with gas insert in 2009, kitchen and bathroom remodels in 2012, main roof replacement in 2000, and new front and back porch roofs in 2023. An intercom system remains in place, adding to the character of this early 1900s home that blends timeless craftsmanship with thoughtful updates and generous living space.
