From the moment you enter, you'll be captivated by the stunning original and newly refinished hardwood floors, craftsman-style trim and moulding, and striking leaded glass details that showcase the home's rich history. The main level offers a spacious living room, a formal dining room highlighted by an original bay window, and a large kitchen with ample cabinet storage, a center island, and direct access to the covered side porch with a charming swing-the perfect spot to unwind. This level also includes a full bathroom and convenient laundry closet. Upstairs, you'll find all bedrooms, plus a versatile bonus room ideal for a home office, reading nook, or even a chic dressing room. A staircase leads to the attic, which can be finished to create additional living space. Recent updates ensure peace of mind, including a bathroom refresh in 2021, new furnace and A/C in 2024, freshly refinished porches in August 2025, and brand-new upstairs carpet installed in July 2025. Outside, the fully fenced yard provides both beauty and security for any pets, while the home's unbeatable location places you right across the street from the iconic Dairy Joy. With major upgrades already completed, this home is ready for its next chapter-offering the best of both worlds: historic charm and modern convenience.
