Nestled within a quaint neighborhood, this 1915 home stands as a testament to timeless architectural elegance, now enhanced with a thoughtful renovation completed in 2019. Sitting on nearly half an acre, the lot is a perfect size, backing to privacy. Enjoy luxury shake shingle vinyl siding (2016), newer roof, and newer windows throughout (2012). Upon entering, you are greeted by a large ceramic foyer that leads to a full bath, the living room and dining room with original hardwood floors. The dining room opens to the very large kitchen with stainless steel appliances, crown molding, ample cabinet and counter space and a pantry/mudroom leading to the deck. The deck is perfectly large to host and looks onto the spacious yard. In the back of the home, French doors open to a sunlit office. Upstairs you have 3 bedrooms and huge full bath with a double vanity, rustic barn wood accents, ceramic tile, and great soaking tub with shower (2018). Attic is spacious and light. Unfinished basement has 2 convenient entrances and expands the entirety of the home with great storage shelving, laundry, windows and more. The detached 2 car garage is great for tinkering away and has a full loft with staircase to stow away extra storage. Although a lot of newer improvements, the home still holds a seamless blend of old charm and new comfort. Slow down and enjoy life's simple pleasures at this rural home in Esmond.
