About this home
Rarely seen opportunity to live in a home that offers charm, premium quality interior & exterior upgrades, convenient location, a quiet tree lined street, and all in the exceptional Westover Village neighborhood. This home retains the charming feature of a 1940’s home. The extensive renovations add modern functionality, while keeping the warmth & character, of the original design to the approximately 1860 SF home (approximate 1860 SF including three levels, sunroom, & 3 season porch). It has been renovated with quality materials that have enhanced the fine features of the original refinished oak flooring, solid wood doors, brass & glass doorknobs, & tasteful wood mantel. The front stoop cover has been attractively rebuilt, retaining the character of the home, while improving the aesthetics of the exterior.

The 12' x 16' custom shed is built to the standards of a home with 8' high walls, roof trusses, windows for natural light, & reflective board in roof to reduce temperatures inside , An underground conduit runs from house to behind shed, it is perfect to run electrical to shed. The quality improvements continue in the kitchen & bath renovations.
