About this home
Oh, look! A house with actual personality, built back when "quality control" wasn't just a buzzword. Welcome to this classic American Foursquare Craftsman that is practically begging for a modern glow-up.
They literally do not build them like this anymore (mostly because drywall is cheaper than craftsmanship, but we digress). From the street, she’s a total stunner: you’ve got the iconic full-width front porch, that upper-level bay window, and the quintessential mixed siding materials that scream "I have architectural integrity." All of this sits on a massive .43-acre lot. Thanks to the R4 zoning, you have options: subdivide the lot and build a whole new house next door to sell to your least favorite relative, or just hoard the green space all to yourself. Walk up the wide steps, past the classic columns, and glide through the charming front vestibule. Inside, you’re greeted by real-deal period features: soaring ceilings, gorgeous historic millwork, original hardwood floors, and those wide, expansive architectural archways with bracketed corners that you just can't recreate with a trip to a big-box hardware store. The dining room is flooded with natural light and features a three-sided bay window with a built-in bench—perfect for dramatic sighing while staring at the rain—plus high board-and-batten wainscoting. Now, let’s talk about the kitchen. It has "the basics." Translation: it’s functional, but it’s waiting for you to channel your inner HGTV star and make it spectacular. Bonus points: there’s a massive mudroom/laundry area at the back of the first floor that is practically screaming for you to add a future powder room. Upstairs, you’ll find four generously sized bedrooms. And yes, there is carpet, but don't panic—there is hardwood flooring hiding underneath just waiting for its grand reveal. The full bathroom is a solid vintage masterpiece clad in an abundance of ceramic tile. We’re talking classic, original-generation white subway tiles capped with a bullnose liner, complete with built-in ceramic soap dishes and a matching towel bar. Retro? Yes. Indestructible? Also yes. Need storage? The attic will easily swallow all your holiday decor and the hobbies you abandoned three weeks after starting. The basement features a hardwood ceiling, a dedicated workshop area for your DIY ambitions, and a walk-up entrance to the rear yard. Outside, the perks keep coming. There’s a backyard shed, a large driveway with enough off-street parking for a modest fleet, and a side yard so ridiculously massive that it has “so much room for activities!” (Seriously, you could do aerobics, build a fort, or practice karate). This epic lawn leads to a genuinely charming two-car detached garage—complete with its own cupola and weathervane. Frame the view with the majestic mature trees on the property, and you’ve got a rare opportunity with endless possibilities. Bring your vision, bring your contractor, and come claim your castle!...
