Enjoy country living just minutes from town in this beautifully updated historic home, once a one-room schoolhouse. This property features solid oak hardwood flooring in the main living areas, and slate tile in the kitchen and bath. The kitchen offers cherry cabinets, granite countertops, a marble backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. As evidenced by the deeply recessed windows, the extra thick exterior walls provide great insulation- for both climate and sound! An attached garage provides convenient access to the basement. Situated on 1.95 acres, this home offers the perfect blend of charm, history, and modern comfort-just minutes from shopping and Interstate 88.
