Charming historic home located within the sidewalk district downtown. Large yard with beautiful perennial plantings. Enter through a large enclosed porch with slate floor that adds extended living space in the warmer seasons. The first floor boasts spacious rooms with a beautiful curved staircase leading upstairs. The living room features a fireplace (currently an electric insert in place) and a cozy alcove that is perfect for houseplants or relaxing with a good book! There is an additional family room with new laminate flooring, dining room with built in hutch, kitchen with breakfast bar and a first floor bedroom! Upstairs are two large bedrooms with a dressing room and connected full bath. The town classifies this home as four bedrooms - the dressing room could serve as a small bedroom or home office. There is a connected barn/garage that can house one vehicle with a space behind that for a workshop/storage area. There is also storage upstairs over this area. The large yard has invisible fence, a private stone patio and plenty of space for play! With finishing touches this home will be an amazing showcase! All room sizes are approximate.
