Offering 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath and 1,008 square feet, this circa 1890 cottage blends vintage character with modern industrial-farmhouse finishes. Low-maintenance curb appeal starts with a red metal roof, charcoal vertical siding and a full-width covered front porch with composite decking. Step inside to a show-stopping great room with soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed iron tie rods, recessed lighting and a reclaimed barnwood beam that sets the tone for the whole home. The open floor plan flows right into a designer eat-in kitchen featuring white shaker cabinetry with matte black hardware, a huge peninsula with breakfast bar seating, storage and prep space, open wood shelving, pantry cabinet and refrigerator, gas range, microwave, dishwasher and washer - all included!

The rear primary bedroom is a true retreat with vaulted ceiling, reclaimed wood beams, track lighting, French doors and a walk-in closet. Second bedroom with ceiling fan works great as a guest room or home office. Mechanically sound with high-efficiency forced air furnace, gas hot water tank, circuit breakers and replacement windows. Basement offers bonus storage. Out back, enjoy a deep 151 foot lot with a private, partially fenced yard, raised garden beds, mature trees and plenty of room for a patio or firepit.
