Welcome to this classic 1930-built home, full of timeless charm and many original features. Beautiful hardwood floors run throughout the house, and original built-ins in the bedrooms add warmth and character. The cozy living room features a wood-burning fireplace, perfect for relaxing evenings. A half bath has been recently added to the main floor for your convenience, and the full bath on the second level has been thoughtfully updated. The fourth bedroom can be easily removed to restore the living room to its original spacious size, offering flexible layout options.
