    What's special

    Wood-burning fireplaceCovered front porchRear deckCharacter and craftsmanshipPrivate guest suiteOversized bedroomMain floor primary suite
    Character and craftsmanship meet modern comfort in this 1925 home, thoughtfully expanded to suit the way today's buyers live. Picture your mornings here: coffee in hand on the covered front porch, watching the neighborhood wake up beneath original Craftsman columns. Step inside and that same character carries through: original woodwork, a wood-burning fireplace anchoring the living room, built-in glass-front display shelves flanking the Dining Room, and warm hardwood floors (including under the living room carpet). The kitchen's dedicated pantry and built-in hutch keep everyone gathered around while dinner comes together. French doors open into a private guest suite, an oversized bedroom with double closets and its own full bath, ideal for visiting family and friends, or generational living. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms offer generous closets and cozy nooks built for quiet reading or lazy weekend mornings, sharing a hall bath appointed with a clawfoot tub. The main floor primary suite is a later addition that blends seamlessly with the home's original style, offering an oversized bedroom, a large walk-in closet, and a spa-like bath complete with its own clawfoot tub, the perfect place to unwind after a long day. Downstairs, a finished lower-level family room adds flexible living space for movie nights or a rainy-day retreat. Outside, the .6-acre lot is made for real life: room for to run, garden, anything your heart desires. Imagine evenings on the rear deck as the sun goes down, and mature trees that make the whole yard feel like its own private escape. Location seals the deal: this home sits within walking distance of Schroeder Park, the Manchester Aquatic Center, and the Manchester Amphitheatre, putting summer swims, concerts, and green space right at your doorstep. Nearby commuter routes make this one very easy to get wherever you need to get to. Homes with this much character and this much room to live don't come around often.
