About this home.

Step into a beautifully restored piece of history where timeless character meets modern comfort. This exceptional 100+ year-old home has been thoughtfully brought back to life, preserving the craftsmanship and architectural details that make homes of this era so special while incorporating the updates today's buyers appreciate.

From the moment you enter the spacious foyer, the character of this home immediately makes an impression. High ceilings, a stunning original staircase, beautifully restored hardwood floors, and rich oak woodwork showcase the craftsmanship found throughout the property. The gorgeous oak trim on the main level and detailed woodwork throughout the home add warmth and character.

The restored hardwood floors are truly one of the home's standout features, complementing the original architectural details while giving the interior a beautifully finished and move-in-ready appearance.

While the home proudly maintains its historic charm, it also offers modern conveniences that can be difficult to find in a home of this age. All new windows and central heat and cooling provide improved comfort and efficiency, while a metal roof, durable siding, and whole-house generator add even more value and peace of mind.

The spacious and versatile floor plan includes a main-level primary bedroom, an especially desirable feature in a historic home, along with three additional bedrooms upstairs. With four bedrooms total, there is plenty of flexibility for family, guests, a home office, or additional living space.

The home offers two full bathrooms plus an additional half bath. One full bathroom features a jetted tub, while another includes a beautiful clawfoot bathtub, continuing the perfect blend of modern comfort and vintage character.

The kitchen offers attractive finishes, plenty of functionality, and all appliances convey, making the transition to the new owner even easier.

Outside, the property continues to impress with a level backyard surrounded by privacy fence that creates a wonderful space for relaxing, entertaining, pets, or outdoor activities. A detached two-car garage located at the rear of the property provides valuable parking, storage, and additional flexibility.

Everywhere you look, this home tells a story. From the grand staircase and high ceilings to the restored hardwood floors and beautiful oak woodwork, its original character has been carefully preserved rather than covered up. At the same time, updates such as central air, new windows, a whole-house generator, metal roof, and modernized living spaces make it comfortable and practical for today's lifestyle.

Move-in ready and exceptionally well cared for, this is a rare opportunity to own a 100+ year-old home that has been restored and brought back to life while maintaining the character and craftsmanship that make it truly special. If you appreciate historic charm but don't want to sacrifice modern comfort, this property offers an incredible combination of both.
