Exceptional care, timeless craftsmanship, and remarkable versatility come together at this beautifully maintained Sheldon farmhouse. Ornate woodworking inside and out reflects the attention given to every detail, creating a home with character that is increasingly hard to find. Cherished across generations, the property blends historic charm, inviting living spaces, and outstanding areas for work and recreation. Currently arranged as a triplex, the home offers flexibility for a variety of living arrangements. The first and second floors remain connected by a staircase with a door at the top, providing an easy opportunity to reunite these spaces into one larger residence. A separate one-bedroom third unit offers additional possibilities as an in-law apartment or rental. Continue the existing configuration or envision a larger home with separate accommodations. Inside, granite kitchen countertops complement beautiful oak details, including oak baseboards and an original solid-oak pass-through between the kitchen and dining room. Carefully preserved features and intricate woodwork speak to the pride of ownership evident throughout. Outside, exceptional hardscaping creates an unforgettable setting for relaxing and entertaining. A sprawling 900-square-foot blue flagstone patio features an impressive wood-burning fireplace measuring approximately 10 feet wide at its base and 11 feet tall. A rear deck wraps around the side of the home with cable railings, while stamped-concrete walkways in tan and gray tones bring the outdoor spaces together. The impressive 24-by-42-foot insulated garage/woodworking shop features natural gas heat and a dedicated paint and stain finishing room with an exhaust fan. An enclosed 24-by-24-foot carport provides even more space for recreational equipment and lawn care essentials. Beautifully cared for and rich in possibilities, this distinctive property is ready for its next chapter.
