Main sewer serviced in 2025. As you enter the lovely foyer through the original oval lite door with a transom window above, you will be in awe of the beautiful hardwood flooring that has recently been refinished and the grand staircase leading to the second level. In keeping with the original character the dining area is separate from the kitchen to create a more formal and quiet space. You can enter the updated kitchen from dining or living room. It features nicely painted cabinetry, all stainless steel appliances and textured ceiling tiles giving an aesthetic interest and goes great with the age of the home. Upstairs you will find 3 bedrooms with newly finished hardwood and a full remodeled bathroom. Outside is a 2 car garage that is currently partitioned off allowing only 1 car capacity. The new deck installed is a great place to enjoy your morning coffee. Because of the location of the home you can enjoy the 4th of July fireworks show from your front porch.
