Step into history with this beautifully maintained 1862 home offering timeless charm, generous space, and endless possibilities. The enclosed front porch welcomes you into a spacious 13x18 foyer/family room, showcasing stunning hardwood floors and original woodwork that carry throughout the home. The main level features a flexible bedroom that can easily serve as a home office or den, along with a living room, formal dining room highlighted by stained glass windows, and a spacious kitchen complete with abundant cabinetry and original built-ins that are truly a must-see. An enclosed back porch just off the kitchen provides a perfect spot to relax and unwind. Upstairs, you'll find five additional bedrooms and a full bathroom, with hardwood flooring throughout. The walk-up attic offers incredible potential for additional living space or a future primary suite, already equipped with insulation, electrical, attic fan, and newer windows. The exterior is equally impressive, featuring a deck overlooking a 24-foot above-ground pool, mature trees, and beautifully landscaped grounds. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, or those needing extra storage will appreciate the 20x55 detached 2.5-car garage, along with an additional 20x30 garage space ideal for a workshop or "man cave." A dry basement, accessible from the back porch, includes a working shower, clawfoot tub, shop area, and ample storage. Additional updates include newer windows, furnace and A/C (2015), and newer appliances. This property offers a rare combination of historic character, functional space, and opportunity-ready for its next chapter.
