Property Description
Space is one of this home's greatest attractions. The impressive 325 sq. ft. living room connects to a generous 165 sq. ft. dining room, creating an inviting setting for gatherings and entertaining. The adjoining kitchen offers approximately 120 sq. ft. of open floor area, excluding cabinets and appliances, complemented by a separate 44 sq. ft. pantry.
Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms measure approximately 186, 156 (including closet), 150, and 121 sq. ft. A separate 100 sq. ft. den overlooking the backyard, situated between the upstairs bathroom and fourth bedroom, offers versatile space for an office, reading room, or creative retreat. The home features 1,712 sq. ft. of county-reported living area, plus a 176 sq. ft. open porch and 144 sq. ft. utility area, totaling 2,032 sq. ft. of gross area. The original floor plan remains largely intact, with four bedrooms, the den, and one full bathroom upstairs, while a spacious 78 sq. ft. full bathroom and additional half bathroom are downstairs.
Thoughtfully adapted for modern comfort, this home preserves its original room divisions, walls, ceilings, and distinctive architectural character. Subtle variations in the alignment and levelness of walls, ceilings, and floors reflect its century-old construction, materials, and passage of time. Rather than replacing these original elements, the home's authentic historic charm has been intentionally maintained.
Recent improvements offer additional peace of mind. The home recently passed a four-point inspection covering its four-year-old roof, electrical, plumbing, and regularly maintained HVAC systems. The foundation was professionally stabilized during the current ownership, with a transferable warranty and supporting documentation available for review. Brand-new, American-made DuraLux Performance luxury vinyl flooring offers waterproof and scratch-resistant performance with a 15-year manufacturer's warranty. Fresh interior paint, updated bathroom vanities, and reglazed bathtubs further enhance the interior. The property has also received continuous annual professional pest-control service throughout the current ownership.
Outdoor living is another highlight. The large, level, fully fenced backyard offers generous space for relaxation, gardening, and entertaining. A charming barbecue and sitting area features vintage brick paving, collected and arranged over the years, adding a personal touch. A practical laundry and utility room connects the kitchen to the backyard, providing space for laundry, bicycles, tools, and storage. Most windows retain their original character, with selected replacements made over time.
Situated on a residential block that has benefited from neighboring property improvements, this home offers architectural individuality, generous living spaces, and the appeal of a century of history. This is not a house whose history has been erased by remodeling, but one that has evolved with time, preserving the character of its first century while welcoming the next. A special opportunity to appreciate authentic architecture, abundant natural light, and a home with a story to tell.
