Property Description

Charming Village Home Just Steps from the Park - Looking for a peaceful village retreat on one of the quietest, least-traveled streets—just a short stroll from the park? This beautifully preserved early-1900s home might be exactly what you’ve been searching for! With 4 spacious bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, there’s plenty of room to spread out and make yourself at home. Step onto the inviting side porch, featuring beadboard walls and classic double-hung windows—the ideal spot to enjoy your morning coffee or relax with a good book. The backyard is a private, fully fenced-in oasis, offering serenity and space to unwind. You're just a short walk from everything the village has to offer, making convenience a key feature of this location. A standout bonus is the restored old carriage house in the backyard, now sitting on a new poured concrete foundation. The original structure has been reinforced and repositioned, blending historic charm with modern durability to create a unique outbuilding full of potential. Additional recent updates include: a fully rebuilt front porch, flooring throughout the main level, a freshly renovated bathroom, interior and exterior repainting, new basement entrance and bilco doors, patio in the backyard is covered with an open beam structure and metal roof. This home is truly a must-see!
