About this home
Very pretty 3BR/2+bath farmhouse style 2 full story home with finished attic. Lovingly maintained for generations by the original family owners, this charmer is set among only a handful of 2 story houses, in an area known for its capes and ranches. The covered rocking chair front porch makes this traditional American style home a rare discovery, fairly unique for the neighborhood. Enjoy the new porch swing, courtesy of the sellers! The addition of the large family room with full shower bath in the back provides over 260 more square feet than the records indicate (1340, noted here as approx 1600), and offers many options - think possible en-suite first floor BR, or guest/in-law suite. Central AC on the main floors keep this home comfortable year round. Consider as well the beautiful original wood details and doors with glass knobs and vintage hardware, and the hardwood floors in bedrooms and living areas (including under the Berber carpet). The kitchen is more spacious than photos indicate with plenty of cabinets, designer hand printed wall paper, and the almost required window over the sink! The finished attic, once used as a painting studio, adds yet more usable (non-sleeping) space - note the built in drawers. The late matriarch was an avid gardener, planting scheduled perennials that bloom in turn through the warmer months, from daffodils and tulips through to morning glories, sunflowers, Rose of Sharon shrubs, and more. The roof is 12 years, and the HVAC ten years, young. Block foundation done in the 1960s. The full basement with vented glass block windows also provides a third john. Concrete driveway is in great condition, leads to 2 car garage. Red maple in front is young and away from wires - enjoy for decades! Buy now, tweak to suit, and settle in before the snow flies!
