This beautifully refurbished older home blends timeless historic charm with thoughtful modern updates completed over the past five years. From the moment you step inside, you’ll notice the warmth and serenity that make this house truly feel like home. Featuring gorgeous original wood floors, soaring 9-foot ceilings, and abundant natural light through double-pane windows with custom blinds, every room offers character and comfort. Major improvements include a new roof installed just 3 years ago, along with new siding and gutters completed 2 years ago. Mechanical systems have been replaced or refurbished, and the basement walls have been sealed for added peace of mind. Outside, the backyard provides a private retreat perfect for gardening, relaxing in a hammock, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. A spacious 2-car garage offers convenient parking along with loft storage for tools, seasonal items, or extra space needs. This is a rare opportunity to own a home with historic appeal, modern reliability, and a calm, welcoming atmosphere throughout.
