This colonial-style home, built in 1914, is full of character & move-in ready. A brick herringbone pathway guides you through a stone patio to the grand front door. As you step into the home, there is original crown molding & hardwood floors throughout. The kitchen has quartz countertops & custom cabinetry. Upstairs, you'll find an expansive primary suite, walk-in closet, and second bedroom. Outside, a brick courtyard with a pergola leads to the two-car garage & fenced-in yard. This home combines charm & designs that have stood the test of time with thoughtful, modern updates. A true testament to quality & care -- they just don't make houses like this anymore. Don't miss your chance to make it yours!
