Original plank wood floors, richly toned beams, preserved period features, and a striking stucco wood-burning fireplace bring depth and authenticity to the living spaces.
With 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 1,790 square feet of living space, the home offers a flexible layout for full-time living, weekend use, guests, or working from home. A first-floor bedroom and full bath add everyday convenience, while the large dining room provides an inviting setting for dinners and gatherings. Upstairs, a landing den area creates additional flexible space for a home office, reading nook, studio, or lounge.
The kitchen features granite counters, and central air and forced-air heat provide year-round comfort while preserving the charm of an older home. A walk-out unfinished basement adds useful storage and future potential.
Outside, the property feels like a private retreat. A large deck overlooks the wooded setting and layered landscaping, creating an ideal space for outdoor dining, entertaining, or quiet mornings surrounded by nature. An outdoor sauna and shower add a special wellness-focused feature, while the above-ground pool brings added enjoyment during warmer months.
