About this home

Rich in character and timeless charm, this grand home showcases intricate, ornate woodwork, soaring ceilings, and mostly hardwood floors throughout. The first floor offers an eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, fireplaced living room, convenient half bath, and a light-filled three-season room with exterior access to a private deck overlooking the level backyard. The second floor features three spacious bedrooms and a full bath, while the third floor provides three additional bedrooms and another full bath—ideal for guests, home offices, or extended living. Recent updates include a brand-new furnace and water heater. An attached two-level outbuilding offers exceptional flexibility as a garage, workshop, or storage barn.
