With tasteful updates from previous and current owners, this beautiful historic home offers modern conveniences and old-world charm. Enter the home from the new front porch into the grand 2-story foyer with beautiful pine floors, a solid oak staircase, and a banister featuring marble kick plates. Just off the foyer is the grand living room with pine floors, extra-high ceilings, and tall windows, giving an airy feel to the property. The living room's focal point is the floor-to-ceiling brick-facade electric fireplace, and pocket doors opening to the large dining area. The dining room also features pine floors and built-in floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, and it opens into the kitchen. This updated kitchen includes granite countertops, all-new stainless-steel appliances, tiled floors, and a breakfast bar between the kitchen and dining room. A tastefully designed powder room is found on the main level. The second level includes the master and a second bedroom, each with an ensuite, and a laundry room. The oversized master bathroom has a new double vanity, a large whirlpool tub, and a separate shower. The second bathroom was updated in 2023. The unfinished basement accommodates an additional washer and dryer hookup and lots of dry storage space. A large deck lets you enjoy the lovely, landscaped backyard with a short walk to a detached 2-car garage. Other updates include new cement-board siding (2024) and window (2023/2024), a boiler for radiant heating, a newly paved driveway, and a rebuilt retaining wall. The AC is eight to ten years old; the shingles were replaced in 2016, and the electrical panel was updated in 2012. The property has two tandem water heaters to accommodate all your hot water needs.
