This beautiful 4-bedroom, 2-bath Victorian combines incredible original craftsmanship with the major updates today's buyers want. Step inside and you'll immediately notice the soaring ceilings and stunning original woodwork--from the solid wood pocket doors and substantial trim to the gorgeous staircase with intricate spindles and detailed millwork. And best of all, the original woodwork hasn't been painted white! The character has been preserved while the home itself has been thoughtfully updated. The spacious kitchen and both bathrooms have been updated, and numerous improvements include the roof, electrical, plumbing, windows, furnace and central air, water heater, iron filter, water softener, electric fireplace and more. Upstairs, an unfinished walk-up attic offers tons of additional possibilities for storage, a future bonus space, studio, game room or whatever the next owner can envision. Outside, the home sits on nearly an acre withmature trees, a horseshoe driveway and a 3-car detached garage offering plenty of room for vehicles, toys, hobbies and storage. Convenient access to I-94 and US-127 makes commuting easy while still giving you the space and character that are so hard to find. If you've been looking for the charm and craftsmanship of a historic home without sacrificing modern updates, this one truly stands out. So much character, so much space and so much opportunity!
