You're greeted by original wood floors, elegant millwork, and a stunning staircase that showcases the home's vintage personality-complete with a vibrant stained glass window and decorative stair risers that add a splash of artistry. The kitchen is full of eclectic style and function, with a classic farmhouse sink, subway tile backsplash, custom butcher block counters, and a cheerful mint green island that doubles as added prep and display space. Industrial-style lighting and checkerboard floors bring in a playful retro flair while keeping the space practical and inviting. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area features a bold mix of textures-wood floors, a partially exposed plaster wall, and deep, rich wall colors that give the space warmth and depth. The built-in breakfast bar connects the kitchen to the dining room, perfect for casual meals or entertaining. Vintage charm continues with the detailed wood trim and classic chandelier lighting, offering a perfect blend of old-world elegance and modern creativity.

You'll fall in love with the character and charm throughout: pocket doors, intricate woodwork, a grand open staircase, stained glass window and vintage-style phone nook. A centrally located woodstove not only adds cozy ambiance but can efficiently heat the home during the winter months. Outside, enjoy the brand new amish built deck as well as, a fenced-in backyard with a serene pond, perfect for catching glimpses of fish and frogs-fun for both kids and adults! Fresh rock has been added around the pond area, enhancing its beauty and usability. The current yellow siding is energy-efficient and easy to paint if you're ready for a new look.
