The home's main level features the Foyer with the main staircase, Parlor, Living Room, Sitting Room, Library, Kitchen, Dining Room, Guest Bathroom, Enclosed Porch, and the second/rear staircase. The second level features 4 spacious bedrooms, one full bathroom, and a beautiful sitting area overlooking the front yard! The most recent improvements include a metal roof, updated electrical supplies and 5 rebuilt chimneys. The expansive dry basement has ample space for storage and has both interior and exterior accessibility! Additional highlights include 3 fireplaces(as-is), nearly 1/2 acre lot, mature trees, 38' x 8' front porch, custom built-in cabinets, pocket doors, ample storage, antique fixtures throughout and much more!
