Directions & Remarks

- Welcome to this charming and thoughtfully updated home where character, functionality and pride of ownership come together. From the inviting front porch to the original woodwork, hardwood floors, built-in buffet and preserved kitchen cabinetry, this home offers the warmth and craftsmanship that make older homes so special. The main level features comfortable living and dining spaces filled with natural light, a beautifully updated kitchen that maintains its original character, and a renovated bathroom with updated plumbing, ventilation and lighting. The lower level offers impressive ceiling height, a three quarter bathroom, an egress window and excellent potential for an additional bedroom. One of the standout features of this property is the outdoor setting. Thoughtfully designed gardens, mature landscaping and winding pathways create a peaceful retreat rarely found in the city. Enjoy a spacious deck, paver patio and a backyard designed to be both beautiful and functional, with perennial gardens, pollinator-friendly plantings and space for growing your own vegetables and berries. Other highlights include: updated mechanicals including the addition of central A/C, complete electrical replacement to eliminate knob and tube wiring, a new two car garage, concrete sidewalks and steps, and a new roof in 2022. If you've been looking for a home with original character, meaningful updates and a truly special outdoor space, this is one you won't want to miss.
