About this House
This classic 1 ½ story home has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and is set on a spacious double lot. Built in 1915, it offers generous space inside and out, ample storage, and a great opportunity to update and make it your own. The open front porch welcomes to the foyer which features an open staircase, along with a comfortable living room, dining room, and kitchen. You’ll also find a main-floor bedroom, ¾ bath, and a convenient laundry room with a walk-in closet/pantry. All appliances currently in the home, window treatments and the dining room China hutch will remain. Upstairs offers two generously sized bedrooms, each with two closets, and the full bath is complete with a classic clawfoot tub, adding to the home’s vintage appeal. Many windows have been replaced within the past five years and the home also features an attached double garage. Mechanical updates include a furnace installed in June 2020 and a garage door opener replaced in 2025. Situated on a spacious double lot, this property offers an established garden area that includes thriving asparagus and rhubarb patches—perfect for those who love to grow their own food. This home does need some work, including exterior improvements such as paint or siding, but offers great potential for the right buyer looking to build equity while enjoying space, character, and a desirable lot.
