About this home

Step back in time without giving up modern comfort in this true Victorian home filled with remarkable original character. Offering 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on a corner lot, this special property preserves the craftsmanship that makes historic homes so unique. Original details include doors, doorknobs and decorative hinge plates, hardwood floors in the living and dining rooms, intricate door and window moldings, beautiful banisters and staircase, soaring ceilings, wainscoting, and built-in cabinetry and shelving. Thoughtful improvements provide the conveniences of today while maintaining the home's timeless charm. Major updates completed in 2006 include a complete electrical system, roof, dual-pane windows throughout, and updated flooring in the bedrooms, kitchen, and bathrooms. Two newer HVAC systems provide added year-round comfort. The inviting floor plan features a charming front porch, grand formal entry, spacious living areas, and a formal dining room perfect for entertaining. Unlike many homes of this era, you'll appreciate the generously sized bathrooms and closets offering plenty of storage and functionality. Outside, enjoy a large, fully enclosed yard with room to relax, garden, or entertain, plus off-street parking. Conveniently located close to downtown shopping, dining, and amenities, this is a rare opportunity to own an authentic Victorian that beautifully combines historic architecture with modern-day livability.
