1008 South Lake Street

Known affectionately as “Mabel,” this remarkable 1913 Transitional Victorian blends Victorian elegance with Craftsman character. Built by local businessman H.M. Love—whose name remains stamped in the sidewalk—and lovingly cared for by only four owners, the home offers 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and three tax parcels, including a separately platted, fully buildable lot at 1006 S. Lake Street. Inside are maple hardwood floors, original fir flooring, Marmoleum, abundant storage, oversized closets, a mudroom pantry and upstairs laundry. Thoughtful updates include complete rewiring and removal of knob-and-tube wiring in 2009, nearly all replacement windows, a remodeled lower bathroom, exterior painting, rebuilt steps, refreshed porch decking and railings, and an updated garage roof. Additional features include a smart thermostat, six-zone irrigation, reverse-osmosis filtration and a high-capacity mini-split. The unfinished basement provides storage, workshop space and plumbing for a future sink. A rare opportunity!
