Looking for a place to call your own that’s brimming with charm? This home is truly one of a kind! Step inside and you’ll be greeted by original woodwork and floors, plus custom-painted floors in both the bedrooms. The enclosed sun porch opens into a spacious living room that flows seamlessly into the dining room and kitchen. Thoughtful details like a custom pantry, built-in shelves, a removable stair rail, and a mudroom maximize every nook and offer plenty of storage. Upstairs, you’ll find a bright and inviting sleeping or office area. Just beyond, a large unfinished room sits above the living room and porch—perfect for transforming into an additional bedroom or flex space. The basement is full of character, featuring a vintage wet bar in a bonus space with limestone walls and a painted floor—total speakeasy vibes! Beyond that, there’s ample workshop space, storage, and a laundry area. Outdoors, the grounds feature a patio and firepit. From the alley, you’ll enjoy access to a one-car garage plus an additional off-street parking space. Don’t miss the chance to make this unique property yours—schedule a showing before it’s gone!
