Some houses just have a feeling—and this one has it. Historic charm, warm wood floors, generous spaces, and nearly an acre of room to spread out. All this comes together in a property that feels both welcoming and full of possibilities. A large eat-in kitchen is made for real life: because no matter how big the house is, everyone congregates in the kitchen. Morning coffee or homework at the table in the 'nook', or gatherings with friends and family. A flexible first-floor room offers the option of a bedroom, home office, den, or guest, space, making the floor plan adaptable to whatever life looks like now—or down the road. Upstairs, a spacious bonus room is ready to become whatever you need it to be (it could be bedroom though currently has no heat source). Tucked in that room is a particularly fun piece of the home's history: a plumbed “darkroom” closet. Photographer? Artist? Hobbyist? Secret mad scientist? You decide. It's room and it's unusual feature that could become a creative studio, darkroom, craft space,fantastic storage, or possible potential for a half bath? Then there's the yard. Nearly an acre gives you room to garden, play, entertain, let the dog run, or finally pursue those backyard dreams you've been putting off. Raised beds, flower gardens, a play area—or perhaps a few chickens? Why not? The charming tree swing out front adds just the right touch of old-fashioned whimsy. For the makers, tinkerers, collectors, and hobby enthusiasts, there are two large workshop spaces offering an abundance of room for projects, equipment, storage, or creative pursuits. All of this, conveniently close to the elementary and high schools, and ideally situated for commuters. It's a rare combination: a home with genuine character, generous outdoor space, flexible floor plan, and plenty of opportunity to make it your own. Come for the historic charm. Stay for the possibilities.
