About this House

Charming small town 1880 house with all the character but many updates! Roof new in 2020. Water heater appx 5 years old. Updated electrical and plumbing. Remodeled kitchen has big island and stainless steel appliances. Jetted tub/shower combo in bath/laundry room. Could be a 3 bedroom although the parlor room and middle room do not have closets. (Sellers used back room as a walk in closet). Very deep 2.5 car garage could actually hold 4 small cars. Would make a great work out area, workshop or man cave!
