The home offers soaring 16-foot ceilings in three rooms, a log cabin-style kitchen, a small upstairs library, and a working beehive oven alongside a walk-in fireplace, creating a truly distinctive gathering space. A dedicated kindling storage area adds to the home's historic functionality. Many original interior doors remain, further enhancing the property's historic charm. Additional features include numerous trellises, updated exterior lighting, thoughtfully designed details throughout, and a basement featuring 9-foot poured walls.
