Property Description
Step through the welcome door and feel it right away - this house has stories in its bones. Built in 1900, it's held onto the details that new construction simply can't fake: soaring 9-foot ceilings, a graceful pocket door, and trim work carved by hands that don't build like this anymore. Wander through the sun-washed front rooms where oversized windows pull in the light, into a kitchen wrapped in warm barn wood walls with a charming brick accent, the kind of space that whispers of Sunday mornings and slow coffee. Just off the living area, the first bedroom reveals itself through a one-of-a-kind built-in shelf surround that doubles as its doorframe, a genuinely unexpected, characterful touch you won't find twice. Upstairs, dormered bedrooms and a fun attic space offer nooks and crannies that spark imagination! Use the space as a reading corner, a studio, a hideaway just for you. Outside, mature shade trees and a classic covered front porch set the scene for evening lemonade, while the generous backyard round out the possibilities. This is a canvas for someone who sees the soul in an old house and wants to bring their own vision to life, a rare chance to preserve real character while making it entirely your own. Bring your imagination; this one is ready to be loved all over again!
