What's special
Filled with old-world charm, beautiful original details and quality craftsmanship rarely found today, this four-bedroom, three-bath brick home offers something truly special in the historic downtown Farmington neighborhood. Set on a corner lot, the home's character begins before you even step inside, with its classic brick exterior, charming balconies and a welcoming front porch – the perfect place for morning coffee or winding down at the end of the day. Inside, original woodwork, hardwood floors, a brick fireplace, and beautifully crafted custom built-ins and custom buffet give the home warmth and personality at every turn. The main level offers inviting living and dining spaces made for gathering, along with a functional kitchen, laundry area, and convenient half bath. Upstairs are four bedrooms, a full bath, and a unique attic/loft with endless possibilities – home office, reading retreat, hobby room, or creative studio. The lower level adds even more usable space with a large family room, three-quarter bath, abundant storage, and another room to make it your own. Outside, enjoy mature manicured landscaping, a spacious patio, storage shed, and attached one-car garage. Close to downtown Farmington, parks, trails, restaurants, and local amenities nearby, the location is just as appealing. If you've been searching for a home with character this one is a must see. The craftsmanship, built-ins, gathering spaces, and timeless details give this home a warmth and charm that simply can't be recreated.
