SALE PENDING - SHOWNG FOR BACK UP OFFERS. Step back in time and fall in love with this historic home, nestled in one of the community’s most beloved, tree-lined neighborhoods. Set on a generous lot with mature trees and surrounded by homes full of character and charm, this property captures the grace and craftsmanship of a bygone era. Inside, you’ll find original hardwood floors, a formal dining room that’s hosted decades of family dinners, and a cozy living room centered around a classic fireplace—perfect for curling up with a good book on a quiet evening. Years ago, a thoughtful addition created space for casual dining and a relaxed family room, now open to the kitchen where morning coffee feels especially inviting.
The true heart of the home might just be the four-seasons room—a sun-drenched sanctuary with in-floor heating and walls of windows that look out over a backyard so lush and peaceful, it feels like your own private park.Upstairs are three bedrooms, all with the kind of comfort only an older home can offer. The primary suite features a spacious attached bath, and there’s another full bath down the hall with vintage charm intact. The walk-up attic remains untouched, filled with potential and whispering stories of what it could become. The lower level offers even more space with a rec room complete with a second fireplace, and a full bath—ideal for game nights, guests, or quiet retreats. A two-stall detached garage completes the picture. Lovingly maintained and full of soul, this is the kind of home that doesn’t come along often—a place where memories have been made and where new ones are ready to begin.
