The front porch is completely refinished with quality finishes that welcome you to sit and enjoy the outdoors, welcoming your neighbors to stop and say hello! The interior has left nothing to the imagination. The Kitchen has been completely remodeled with lovely cabinets, new quartz counters and great appliances.

Everything has been upgraded, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, the whole house water system, you name it and it has been upgraded into a lovely home that retains the historic charm while allowing the use of todays modern systems. All of the improvements were done by the owner for their enjoyment. Don't curb appraise this one.
