Overview of the House

This beautifully maintained 1900 brick home blends historic character with thoughtful modern updates throughout. Showcasing stunning original woodwork and well-loved hardwood floors, nearly every room has been improved in recent years—ranging from fresh paint and refinished floors to a fully updated foyer and new windows across the entire second floor.

The home offers a spacious and functional layout, including four bedrooms on the second floor and a remodeled full bathroom (2024), along with a private third-floor primary suite that lives like its own retreat. The suite features a full ensuite bathroom added in 2021, complete with an operable skylight, a dedicated laundry closet with washer and dryer hookups (units not included), and a level of privacy that feels almost like a studio apartment. In total, the home includes three full bathrooms, including one in the basement.

The kitchen was remodeled in 2016 and features warm countertops with a butcher block feature that complements the home’s character while adding modern functionality. The dining room highlights the home’s craftsmanship with a stunning built-in cabinet and original hardwood pocket doors, adding both charm and versatility to the space. Additional features include two laundry areas (basement and primary suite), a large 3-season room, an updated foyer, and a spacious front porch perfect for relaxing.

Outside, you’ll find a private backyard with a patio and privacy fence, along with a detached two-car garage—offering both convenience and space to enjoy the outdoors. This move-in ready home offers a rare combination of timeless charm and meaningful updates throughout.
