Property is move-in ready.
Despite the 1910 build date, the property is well-maintained with significant modern system upgrades including central HVAC on the main level, individual mini-splits in bedrooms, and heated bathroom floors. The kitchen and bathrooms are functional and move-in ready, though the kitchen cabinetry and flooring appear dated and may eventually require cosmetic updates.
Built in 1910, this home features meticulously preserved original woodwork, a grand staircase, and timeless craftsmanship that appeals to buyers seeking authentic turn-of-the-century charm near Historic Downtown.
The property seamlessly integrates modern luxury with history, offering heated bathroom floors, a jetted soaking tub, and a versatile climate control system featuring both central HVAC and individual bedroom mini-splits.
Rare for a historic downtown property, the home includes a private in-ground pool and an oversized detached garage, providing both high recreational value and functional storage space.
With a lot size of just 4,792 square feet, the outdoor space may feel constrained given the substantial footprint of the 2,033 square foot home, pool, and detached garage.
Despite significant upgrades, a home of this vintage may require ongoing specialized maintenance for its original structural elements, attic, and basement compared to modern builds.
