Meticulously maintained and exceptionally clean, this four-bedroom home showcases beautifully restored gumwood trim, stained and leaded glass, and solid wood pocket doors that preserve its original charm and craftsmanship.

A huge walk-up attic provides an abundance of storage and exciting potential for future living space, hobbies, or a home office. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to relax, play, or entertain, plus a convenient storage shed. This is a rare opportunity to own a home where historic details have been lovingly preserved, modern updates have been thoughtfully completed, and every inch reflects pride of ownership.
