The original home was built in 1920 and was located on the harbor. Sometime in the late 1980's, the house was moved to its current location; an addition to the original house was completed soon after. The house has a 3 bedroom/ 2 bath septic system and city water meter. Besides the 3 bedrooms, this home has some additional living spaces such as a dining room, a sunroom, storage areas, and a very spacious and sunny living room. The porch across the front of the house completes the historic picture.
