Blending unbeatable character with thoughtful modern updates, this 3-bedroom home offers approximately 1,950 square feet of finished living space, with original varied-width hardwood floors, 9-foot ceilings, oversized windows, and an abundance of natural light throughout. The main level features a beautifully renovated kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel gas appliances, while the home also offers two updated full bathrooms, second-floor laundry, central air, and a newer roof.
