Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this beautifully preserved two-story brick home blends timeless charm with modern comfort. Featuring 4 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a partially finished basement, this residence is full of rich character and thoughtful updates. Step inside and be welcomed by warm gumwood trim and beautifully refinished hardwood floors (2019) that run throughout the main level. The inviting front porch with a classic porch swing sets the tone for this storybook home. Just inside the entry, you’ll find a whimsical “Harry Potter-style” half bath tucked beneath the staircase. Through elegant wood and glass French doors, the formal sitting room opens to a living area centered around a stunning tiled fireplace. Between the living and dining rooms, custom built-in bookcases with wood and glass panel doors add both charm and function. The kitchen offers a tasteful update with painted cabinetry, corian countertops, and all appliances included. Upstairs, all four bedrooms are filled with natural light, and the spacious primary bedroom features its own decorative fireplace. The full bath includes a corian topped vanity, glass sliding shower doors, and a large linen closet, plus a second cedar-lined linen closet in the hall. Solid wood doors, tall ceilings, new blinds, and fresh paint throughout (2025) add to the home's move-in-ready appeal. The partially finished basement offers flexible living space and features laundry, a utility sink, and abundant storage with dry-sealed walls. Out back, enjoy a beautifully landscaped, fully fenced yard (cedar fence new in 2020), a gravel fire-pit area perfect for gatherings, and a detached 1-car garage. Dimensional shingles on both the house and garage round out this well-maintained historic home. Don't miss the chance to own a piece of history in excellent condition!
