Inside, the spacious living room features solid hickory wood floors, oversized corner windows that flood the space with natural light, and a striking brick fireplace with a Timberwolf wood-burning stove insert. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining area, showcasing original built-in cabinetry that adds timeless character. The kitchen is well-appointed with solid surface countertops, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a ceramic cooktop, and wall oven.

An unfinished basement area provides additional storage and functionality.
All appliances stay, including the refrigerator, washer, and dryer. Major updates include soffit, fascia, gutters, bedroom windows, and a waterproofing system completed in 2026, along with a furnace replacement in 2020.
