The residence features original hardwood floors throughout, tall ceilings, leaded glass, a show stopping stained glass entry door and built-ins in nearly every room, enhancing its distinctive character.

The cozy fireplace adds warmth and elegance, while the sun porch provides serene views of the farm across the street. The second-floor full bathroom has been beautifully renovated with a stand-up shower. The plumbing was fully updated recently throughout the entire home!
