Lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated, this inviting home offers 3 bedrooms plus a finished basement bedroom, along with 2 full bathrooms. Rich original oak hardwood floors, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and ceiling fans preserve the warmth and personality that make vintage homes so special, while numerous updates provide today's conveniences.

A charming brick patio, inviting fire pit, garden area, fully mulched landscape, and 6-foot wood privacy fence create the perfect setting for quiet mornings, summer cookouts, or evenings beneath the stars.
