About this home
**Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort in a Prime Downtown Location!** Step into a piece of history with this beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated home, originally built in 1901. Situated on a spacious lot and a half in a highly sought-after location just a short walk from downtown, this property offers a rare blend of historic character and modern convenience. As you enter, you'll be greeted by classic wood floors and a sense of timeless elegance. The main floor features a versatile library and music room, perfect for quiet afternoons. The heart of the home is the stunning kitchen, completely remodeled in 2000. It features a Subzero refrigerator, and KitchenAid double oven, dishwasher, and cooktop, along with a Samsung microwave. The kitchen flows into a bright and welcoming family room addition. This newer space is anchored by a cozy, chimneyless gas fireplace and provides access to the main floor's half-bath. Upstairs, you will find three bedrooms, each with its own unique charm. The master bedroom includes a ceiling fan and a walk-in cedar closet. The full bathroom on this level has been beautifully remodeled with a modern shower. The full basement offers extensive storage, a workshop area, a laundry room, and an additional shower-perfect for cleaning up after yard work. It also houses a newer furnace and air conditioning system installed in 2000. As a nod to the home's long history, a vintage oil tank remains, adding a unique, historical touch that buyers of older homes will appreciate. **Key updates provide peace of mind for the new owner**, including a major remodel in 2000 that added the family room and updated the kitchen, furnace, and A/C. The roof comes with a 50-year transferable guarantee with many years of life left. The detached garage also includes a dedicated EV charging port. This is a unique opportunity for a buyer who appreciates the character of an older home but desires modern amenities. With its prime location and significant updates to the kitchen and baths-the features that truly sell a property-this home is ready to welcome its next chapter.
