Built in 1880 and beautifully maintained, this distinctive 4-bedroom, 2-bath home blends original charm with extensive updates. Inside, an open-concept living and dining area flows into the beautifully renovated kitchen, hardwood floors throughout, exposed brick chimney and classic architectural details celebrate the home's historic character while thoughtful updates provide today's desired comfort.

The second-floor spa-like bath is a standout, featuring a glass-enclosed shower, freestanding soaking tub, custom cabinetry and abundant natural light. Multiple bedrooms provide flexibility for guests, gym, office or hobbies. The finished walk-out lower level is more than traditional basement space, with full-size windows, direct exterior access and more flexible space.
