    What's special

    This exquisite turn-of-the-century home exemplifies the harmonious fusion of traditional farmhouse design with contemporary conveniences. Over the years, it has undergone meticulous updates, seamlessly integrating style with its enduring charm. Every aspect of the home exudes a captivating blend of old-world elegance. Upon entering, you’re greeted with a den space, which could serve as an ideal sitting area, reading nook, or drop zone. The adjacent family room boasts an abundance of windows, flooding the living space with a deluge of natural light. A combination of LVP flooring and carpeting creates a classic yet comfortable ambiance. Throughout the home, subtle touches, such as custom light fixtures, intricately crafted stairwell spindles, and the curved drop ceiling design in the kitchen, add a touch of personalization and elegance. The kitchen, fully remodeled, features SS appliances, stained cabinets, and updated countertops. Directly adjacent to the kitchen is the dinette, ideal for family dinners. The primary bathroom can be found on this level, with a newly remodeled vanity and a full shower tub combination. One bedroom on this level, with the second floor providing access to two additional bedrooms, one of which is the primary suite complete with a walk-in closet. Additional finish in the basement. Outside, you will have access to just over a half acre. A two-car garage with an extended space on the rear for storage or a hobby shop. Behind that is a garden shed.
