Charming Turn of the Century Victorian located on a quiet side street, a stone's throw from the Library, Post Office, Schools, Town Common and great Pizza! Lovingly cared for, updated, and enjoyed by its owner for over 37 years. Beautiful period architecture creates character, charm and interest, no boring cookie cutter here! The kitchen is a chef's dream, filled custom white cabinetry, stainless appliances, gas cooking, 2 sinks, seated granite island and countertops! Original hardwood floors, handcrafted mahogany wall unit and wood burning fireplace are the perfect mix of character and functionally. Traditional first floor layout offers flex space options for the "must have" home office or first floor bedroom. Abundant natural light streams throughout via the Anderson windows. The cozy sunroom is the perfect place to curl up with a good book! Head outside to the private backyard where you can relax on the brick patio and enjoy views of the perennial gardens and serene waterfall.
