Property Description

Step back in time with this 1948 brick-wrapped gem. Lovingly cared for and bursting with authentic mid-century character, this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers a rare blend of historic charm and functional living space. As you arrive, a welcoming covered front porch invites you inside to discover original architectural details that define the era-including hardwood floors waiting to be uncovered beneath the carpeting. The heart of the home expands into a spectacular family room extension off the back, featuring stunning wall-to-wall windows that flood the space with natural light. The primary suite boasts a rare find for a home of this vintage: a spacious, cedar-lined walk-in closet. Additional living and storage options abound with a solid basement and a massive walk-up attic complete with full stairs just waiting for your creative touches. Outside, the amenities continue with a covered back porch perfect for morning coffee, a detached oversized 2-car garage, and generous extra parking spaces. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history that has been lovingly maintained and is ready for its next chapter!
