About this home

Classic charm meets modern updates in this character-filled home near downtown Sanford. Inside, 10-foot ceilings and restored original woodwork pair with a brand-new kitchen featuring quartz countertops and soft-close wood cabinetry. The newly tiled bathroom showcases a restored clawfoot tub. Major systems have been updated within the past two years, including complete rewiring, new plumbing, and new insulation, while the home's original 100-year-old cedar siding has been preserved. A new roof, installed in 2025, is still under warranty. The flat, spacious yard has plenty of room to entertain or relax, and you're just minutes from downtown shops and dining. USDA eligible. Buyer to verify.
