About This Home
This beautifully maintained 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers the rare combination of historic charm and modern peace of mind. Major improvements made while at the same time preserving it’s original character include 30-year shingles installed in 2018, updated boiler and central air systems, replaced sewer and water lines, refreshed exterior paint, low-maintenance composite decking, a converted gas fireplace, and updated GE Slate kitchen appliances. Situated on a large corner lot with a drive-through driveway, attached garage, and rare underground tandem garage featuring an original fireproof door, the home showcases stunning original woodwork, pocket French doors, abundant built-ins, and beautifully refinished oak and maple hardwood floors protected with a durable gymnasium-grade finish. Thoughtfully updated custom kitchen was designed to complement the home's original character, while multiple living spaces, a sunroom, den/hearth room, formal dining room, four upstairs bedrooms, bonus room, screened porch, and exceptional storage provide space to live, gather, and grow. Surrounded by mature trees, perennial gardens, and beautiful landscaping, this distinctive property blends timeless craftsmanship with meaningful modern updates, creating a home that is as practical as it is charming.
