About This Home

Step into timeless character with this beautifully preserved home in the heart of Grafton Hill, one of the area’s most admired historic neighborhoods. This well maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers classic charm, generous space, and modern convenience where original craftsmanship meets thoughtful updates. From the moment you arrive, the inviting front porch and mature landscaping set the tone for what’s inside: warmth, charm, and space rarely found in newer homes. Inside, you’ll find rich original woodwork, hardwood floors, and classic architectural details throughout, including a beautiful staircase and welcoming foyer that immediately showcases the home’s historic appeal. Just off the kitchen, the full first-floor bath has been beautifully remodeled. Originally converted from the butler’s pantry, it still retains the original cabinetry, a charming nod to the home’s past that adds warmth and function. Multiple living spaces offer flexibility for entertaining or relaxing, with abundant natural light through oversized windows.

The kitchen offers quartzite countertops, gas range, and functional layout, while bathrooms include both a walk-in tiled shower and traditional full bath. Upstairs, spacious bedrooms provide comfort and character, large windows, and charming details. A standout feature is the renovated third floor that adds exceptional flexibility as a large open bonus living space complete with kitchenette, perfect for entertaining, relaxing, working from home, or enjoying a quiet coffee retreat. Outside, enjoy a 2-car garage equipped with a Level 2 EV charger. Located among beautiful homes and tree lined streets, this home offers convenient access to downtown Dayton, parks, and the ongoing revitalization throughout the area, making it an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking both lifestyle and long term value.
