Lovingly cared for by the same family for 51 years, this cherished four-bedroom home offers timeless character, generous space, and endless potential. The light-filled family room is graciously sized and features a beautiful fireplace. The formal dining room is perfect for entertaining and everyday gatherings. The charming kitchen offers abundant space, including a sunny bay window ideal for a breakfast table overlooking the yard and features a door into the new patio for seamless outdoor entertaining.
