Offered for the first time in over a century, this charming 1914 cottage-style home has remained in the same family since it was built.

Inside, you'll find a warm and inviting living room centered around a wood-burning fireplace, 2 quaint bedrooms, an updated Jack and Jill 3/4 bathroom w/ ceramic tile, and a charming kitchen featuring its original farmhouse sink and a dedicated dining area. Additional main-level spaces include a spacious walk-in closet, convenient mud room, and a welcoming back porch with a foyer entrance. The partially finished basement expands the home's possibilities with a second wood-burning fireplace, full bathroom, laundry hookups, abundant storage space, and workbench.
