This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers timeless character with early Victorian-to-craftsman style - 1477 sq ft of high ceilings, charming wood trim, and defined spaces with an open, airy feel. A partially finished lower level adds flexible space that could serve as a 4th bedroom, office, or playroom. Inside, a bright living room with floor-to-ceiling windows flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, beautifully connected by thick, stained wood casings and architectural columns. The dining room features crown molding and French doors opening to the fenced-in backyard, just steps from the fully applianced eat in kitchen with ample space! Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms include one with a cathedral ceiling and another with dual walk-in closets, and ceiling fans throughout! Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard, small patio, and in-ground pool-perfect for summer fun. While the home needs some work to truly shine, it has great bones and offers an incredible opportunity to add sweat equity and restore its full charm! Sold As-Is. Subject to probate.
