Over time its loving owner of 40 years has updated the windows, replaced the roof, added high-velocity central air conditioning and recently walls have been painted and the beautiful pine floors finished. The exterior front, side and rear yards have been well-tended and infilled with perennials, bulbs and native shrubs. The rear property features a stone patio near the house, and a deep well-landscaped yard that's home to flowering shrubs and trees, and often a cacophony of birds in song. The morning sunlight floods the interior front rooms. The living room and dining rooms are combined into one large space; the kitchen has wood flooring and a section of original cabinetry; the windows above the sink overlook the rear yard and captures the afternoon light. On the 2nd floor is one small bedroom or study and two medium sized bedrooms and a tiled hall bathroom with a shower over the tub. The basement has a utility room with storage shelving, an entertainment space, a powder room, a laundry room and French doors to the outside. This historic, well-maintained and perfectly located home is ready to charm its next owner.
