At 1,914 square feet, this home offers generous proportions throughout, with well sized rooms and a layout that provides plenty of flexibility for everyday life and entertaining. Original character can be found throughout, including beautiful hardwood floors with custom inlays that remain in excellent condition. The first floor offers two bedrooms, including the primary bedroom, along with a full bath. The second floor features two additional bedrooms and a half bath. A full basement provides additional space, including an extra room and ample storage, while the detached garage adds even more convenience. The property also features an in ground sprinkler system.

Owned by the same owner for well over 50 years, this is a home that has stood the test of time and preserved the details that make it special. Opportunities to purchase a property with this level of original craftsmanship, solid masonry construction, impressive living space, remarkably low taxes and such a convenient location are increasingly rare.
