This is the kind of home that instantly feels like home. Built in 1900, it blends timeless charm with a warm, lived-in character you simply can't recreate. Inside, you'll find inviting spaces filled with natural light-from the sun-drenched wood-paneled family room with skylights and garden views, to the cozy living areas and an updated kitchen with a large center island that naturally becomes the heart of the home. But what truly sets this property apart is the lifestyle it offers. Step outside and you're surrounded by a homestead-inspired setting-gardens ready for planting, blooming flowers, open yard space, and even a chicken coop for those looking to embrace a more connected way of living. It's peaceful, private, and full of possibility. The detached garage features an exceptional bonus: a beautifully finished studio space is additional 621 sq ft to enjoy! Complete with a full bath and kitchenette. Whether you need a home office, creative space, guest suite, or the ultimate hangout spot, this flexible area delivers. Solar panels add an energy-efficient touch, bringing modern convenience into this character-filled home. A place to slow down, spread out, and live a little differently... in all the best ways.
