You'll find gorgeous original architectural details still here, such as the built-in living room mantle with shelving, classic trim work, shiplap ceiling, wood flooring, and a cozy flow that modern builds just can't replicate. While the historic charm remains intact, the heavy lifting has already been done for you. The home boasts major, high-value structural updates that offer true peace of mind: Foundation has been leveled in 2026, recent Roof replacement in 2024 to include all new decking, Blown-in Attic insulation, and new mini-splits added in 2024, too! Plumbing updates to include: tankless water heater, sewer lines replaced in 2026, gutters and French Drain with sump pump added to help maintain proper drainage and protect the foundation. New clean-out and passing hydrostatic test just this month! No plumbing leaks at this house! Enjoy the character of this 1920s home without the worry of historical maintenance backlogs.
