Property details
About 905 Afton St
There are houses, of course, and then there are homes—the sort of place that feels as though it had been quietly waiting for you all along. This four-bedroom, two-bathroom ranch—unassuming at first glance—is just such a place. Enter and be greeted by the original restored hardwood floors that give this house a nostalgic feel. Imagine your family gathering around the wood-burning fireplace in the living room—not merely decorative, but eager to crackle to life on a wintry evening, casting shadows against the walls and inviting stories and tea. Downstairs, you'll find a second hearth in the den—sturdy, generous, and altogether more informal, as if made for boots, books, and a favorite hound at your feet. Here too are newly laid LVP floors and a thoroughly remodeled full bathroom. In the basement there is also a bonus room (one suspects it would make a fine study or a proper office for Important Thinking). A host of practical enhancements have been made: a newer roof, HVAC, and windows that open to birdsong and breeze. The basement has been waterproofed and the light fixtures and water heater are new. But these are not the only reasons this house matters. It matters because it feels solid and sincere—a dwelling with both roots and possibilities. Step outside, and things get marvelously interesting. A covered side porch flows into a brand-new deck stretching its arms to welcome the sun. Beyond it lies a detached two-car garage, now handsomely updated with new siding, fascia, garage doors, as well as a new electrical panel ready to charge dreams or tools in equal measure. And if you travel further still, past the edge of the ordinary, you'll discover a rare treasure: an RV pad, complete with electrical hookups and its own waste pipe—a thoughtful provision for adventurers returning from the wild with stories and memories. It waits, now, for someone to come and belong to it. Buyer and Buyer's agent to verify all information. Square footage obtained by CRS tax dat
