A single-stall garage opens to Chapman Street, with additional covered storage under the front porch for outdoor equipment. Inside, the main floor includes a formal dining room with the original chandelier still in place. The en suite addition provides modern comfort with in-floor heat, a large bedroom, walk-in closet, and ceramic-tiled bathroom with a low-entry shower. The back entry offers a walk-in pantry, coat and storage closets, and convenient main-floor laundry with sink and hanging racks.
