Inside, the home opens to a bright living room, with the first bedroom just off to the left, featuring a beautiful original glass-pane door that adds a touch of historic charm. Down the hallway, you'll find the remaining bedrooms, including the primary, along with a conveniently located guest bath. The kitchen offers a modern space ready for everyday meals or weekend baking, flowing easily into the dining area--perfect for gathering with friends and family. With approximately 1,464 square feet of living space, there's room to live comfortably while maintaining that cozy feel.
