Situated on a spacious 0.525-acre corner lot, this impressive two-story home offers approximately 2,470 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. Step inside and discover the craftsmanship of another era. Beautiful hardwood floors, rich original woodwork, substantial trim, and an impressive staircase create a warm sense of history throughout the home. Spacious living and gathering areas provide plenty of room to spread out, while a fireplace with built-in cabinetry adds architectural interest and character. The screened porch offers another inviting space to relax and enjoy views of the mature trees and surrounding lawn.
