Property Description

This beautifully renovated Craftsman is so special. The exterior stone and rich wood details welcome you into a home filled with craftsmanship that is increasingly difficult to find. Hardwood floors carry throughout the main level, while the living room features a coffered ceiling, fireplace and built-in cabinetry. The formal dining room continues the architectural detail with another coffered ceiling, wainscoting, double glass doors, and an abundance of natural light. The updated kitchen strikes the perfect balance between old and new, offering modern finishes and conveniences without taking away from the historic character of the home. Also on the main level is a bedroom, a half bath, and laundry. Step outside onto the large rear deck that offers plenty of room for entertaining. Upstairs you'll find three additional bedrooms and a full hall bath. The primary suites bathroom feels like a retreat with tiled floors, wainscoted walls, a double floating vanity, walk-in shower, and freestanding soaking tub surrounded by large-format tile. Even the basement stands apart from what you typically find in a home of this age. The exceptionally high ceilings create an open feel, and a substantial portion has already been framed, giving the next owner a head start toward adding even more finished living space. The detached two-car garage offers finished living space above it complete with a full bathroom and plenty of room for a variety of uses. The home underwent an extensive renovation in 2022, with additional improvements continuing well beyond the remodel. Major updates include a new roof (2022), radon mitigation system (2022), new sewer line (2024), new concrete driveway and parking pad (2024), attic fan (2024), water heater (2025), two furnaces and two AC units (2025), and a new privacy fence (2026). Additionally, there is a 7 year tax abatement attached to the property.
