Upstairs, two snug bedrooms with fresh carpeting offer peaceful escapes, complemented by a pristine full bath.

Storage is a breeze with a spacious walk-in closet, and the tidy, organized basement doubles as a peaceful nook — ideal for a home office, creative studio, or just a quiet retreat. This home marries history with modern sensibilities. Thanks to brand-new Anderson Windows (installed in 2022) and an updated home heating system (installed in 2020) the home can be filled with natural light while staying energy efficient and warm in the winter.
