What could be better than a Victorian home, with a wraparound porch, on a big corner lot, with fantastic curb appeal? It's hard to find a 4 bedroom house, but we have a great one here! Built in 1907, this seller is only the 3rd caretaker of this lovely home, each owner taking meticulous care of the property. Built in an era where craftsmanship and character was in abundance, the original front door is ornately-carved and one-of-a-kind. The formal foyer has a gracefully-curved rail on the open staircase and is grounded with an elaborately-carved newel post. Several leaded glass and 2 stained glass windows can be found throughout, along with 6 of the 8 main rooms having a most unique bay window effect. These large windows allow lots of light to flood into the rooms for a bright, sunny home. 3 massive sets of working pocket doors let you close off rooms for privacy, or keep open for traffic flow and open concept. The original coal fireplace now has a gas log. Original hardwood flooring throughout. Laundry is on the main floor, conveniently located at the bottom of the maid's stairs, in the back of the house. Enclosed back porch. Full walkup attic. Lots of basement storage. Extra large 2 car detached garage has a walkup loft, suitable for workspace, playspace, storage, etc. Lots of updates! New roof on house 2016; on garage 2012. Gutter helmet 2016. Furnace 2018; central air 2017. Meter box 2017. New gas range in 2014 (with very minimal usage). Not in the flood zone; no flood insurance necessary. Great location! CURRENTLY being used as a summer home, Seller would like to sell it complete with contents.

Looking for maintenance free and lower electric bills? This home just had solar panels installed 6 months ago to reduce electric costs!! What could be better than that? There's nothing to do but move in. The kitchen appliances will stay...gas range, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave and even the washer and dryer! A moveable island in the kitchen also stays. New carpeting in 2 bedrooms was just installed in May 2023. All the bedrooms have closet organizers to maximize space. Big living room. Interior colors are all muted, fashionable color schemes. And you even get 1.5 baths. The one car detached garage has an electronic door and a huge concrete side apron just installed that is suitable size for a motorhome. House roof was replaced in 2020; garage roof in 2012. Maintenance free vinyl siding, aluminum soffits and downspouts 2012. It is located in a flood plain, but has only had water in the crawlspace; none in the living space. Much bigger than it appears, you must take a peak and see for yourself!

This is a very nice home and bigger than it looks. The vacant lot to the south is included in the price. Located in the flood plain, the house was elevated after the 2008 flood. At that time, it was gutted. Big decks added to both the front and back of the house. Lots of living space with both a living room and a family room that opens to the eat-in kitchen. The kitchen has nice oak cabinets and all the appliances stay...refrigerator, gas range, microwave and dishwasher. 3 nice-sized bedrooms. The main bath has a shower only and also has the laundry located inside a closet...washer and dryer will stay. Master bedroom has a half bath. Well maintained. Roof, windows, water heater, decking on front and back, central air unit all replaced in 2008. Furnace 2023. One car attached garage. Will require flood insurance if there is a mortgage, but much lower premium due to being elevated. You won't find a better house in this price range. Check it out!
