Step inside to be greeted by breathtaking tiger oak wood trim that wraps every doorway, window, and staircase with warmth and grandeur. The original hardwood floors, high ceilings, and paneled wainscoting speak to the craftsmanship of a bygone era, while tasteful upgrades provide the comfort of today. The expansive living room features rich woodwork, intricate fireplaces, and contemporary chandeliers that offer a striking contrast.

Set on a generous nearly two acre lot with mature trees and lush landscaping, the property also boasts a second large backyard area or secondary lot with potential for a garden, outdoor entertaining space, boat or large equipment storage, or even a future second house. There are two additional outdoor storage buildings in place, one currently used primarily for pool equipment, and the other a two story previous garage that could be used as a versatile workshop or gardening equipment storage.
