About this home
Step into the warmth and character of this stunning 1901 Victorian home, completely renovated in 2022, this light-filled beauty offers the best of both worlds: original stained glass windows, hardwood floors, and intricate period moldings that have been lovingly preserved, paired with a brand-new kitchen and bathrooms designed for today’s lifestyle. Inside, you'll find spacious living areas filled with natural light. The gorgeous sun porch is the perfect spot to sip coffee or unwind with a book, while the large fenced-in backyard invites summer gatherings, playtime, or peaceful evenings under the stars. For those with a green thumb, the additional fenced side yard features established raised garden beds—just waiting to be planted. Upstairs, the second floor hosts four well-sized bedrooms and a beautifully updated full bathroom. The finished third floor offers incredible flexibility—use it as a fifth bedroom, home office, art studio, playroom, or whatever fits your lifestyle. The basement includes a laundry area, a partially finished bonus space, and separate utility and storage rooms. Enjoy easy access to downtown favorites—you're within walking distance to restaurants, community events like PorchFest and Comic Book Day, and more. Whether you're drawn to the rich history, the thoughtful renovations, or the vibrant neighborhood, this home is a rare and special find. Showings begin at the Open House on Friday 6/27 4:30 to 6:30 and Saturday 6/28 10 to 12.
If you love older homes, come view this renovated Victorian colonial on a large lot with a fenced area for pets or garden. Enjoy the charm and character of the 1900's refurbished to retain the original doors and much of the trim. All the hardwood floors have been refinished. The kitchen has been completely remodeled with all new cabinets and appliances. The plumbing and wiring has been updated and the boiler is new. Three unique bedrooms on the second floor make it difficult to choose the best one. The walk up third floor bedroom has an adjoining work area too. The metal roof and vinyl siding are only a few years old. The detached 2-car garage with attached shed is set behind the house. There is a separate enclosed fenced in area on the right side of the driveway for a garden or pet area. NO SHOWINGS UNTIL OPEN HOUSE FRIDAY 2/18 1 - 4 PM & SATURDAY 2/19 11 AM - 2 PM
