About this home
Buy with confidence and step into a piece of history with this stunning 1890s farmhouse retreat, where classic craftsmanship is perfectly paired with modern elegance. This thoughtfully restored 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 2,014 square feet of charm and sophistication, nestled on one of the most sought-after streets in town—just minutes from campus, downtown, scenic trails, and the golf course. Inside, original hardwood floors have been carefully refinished to showcase their timeless appeal. The kitchen strikes the perfect balance between old and new with its original built-in hutch, Amish-made butcher block countertops, and a vintage-inspired farmhouse sink. The main level also features a convenient laundry space with cabinetry and practical storage. Both bathrooms have been elegantly updated with carrara marble countertops, 1897 clawfoot tubs fitted with showers, and sparkling crystal chandeliers—bringing spa-like comfort to everyday living. Unique period details continue throughout the home, including tongue-and-groove ceilings, authentic mortise locks, and walk-in closets—an uncommon find in homes of this age. Peace of mind comes standard with updated electrical, plumbing, a high-efficiency HVAC system, and a new water heater. The exterior impresses just as much, offering an oversized three-car garage with a dedicated office and workshop, long driveway and a spacious backyard ideal for entertaining or relaxing. If you’re looking for historic charm blended seamlessly with today’s amenities, this farmhouse glam gem delivers it all. The craftsmanship and attention to detail truly set it apart.
