Although many upgrades have been made, this home has not lost its historic charm! Walking into the foyer you'll find elegant woodwork, the original staircase with built-in bench, and a sunny sitting area. Original hardwood floors start in the front living room, continue through the den, and into the main dining room. Off the den is a convenient half-bath, and a large bay window brings plenty of light into the dining room. Walking through the breakfast room with built-in china cabinets you'll be lead to the brand new kitchen with quartz counter tops and gas stove! Upstairs are the 4 bedrooms, full bathroom, and all new carpet, as well as a huge walk up attic with plenty of storage space.
