Ready to own a genuine piece of history? This is the authentic 1902 American Craftsman you’ve been looking for! People love this style because of its timeless appeal and all that amazing built-in character. It has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, but listen up: it’s lived a full 124 years and has all the dings and dents from previous owners and tenants to prove it.! That means you'll see the beautiful patina and wear that tells its story. Don't expect perfection—it’s being sold in its original condition. If you're someone who values real, unique character over sterile, modern renovations, this one is for you. Definitely no boring gray walls here! Step inside the foyer and you'll immediately notice the beautiful wood flooring and incredible original paneled wood doors throughout. The main living room features a spectacular coffered ceiling! You also get a dedicated home office space and a sunny, unheated front sunporch—perfect for sipping coffee in the morning light. The formal dining room is ready for your next dinner party, featuring classic French doors, a non-functioning fireplace that has been capped and sealed with an adjacent handy built-in china cabinet. The full hall bath is charming with the original claw foot tub along with new vanity & toilet. The primary bedroom suite is sweet but short on closet space but you can utilize the dressing room connecting to the primary bath with a clean tiled shower. On the rear, there’s an unheated porch that's a great flex space for casual dining, and it’s where you’ll find the washer/dryer hookups. Even better, double slider patio doors lead right out to your deck overlooking the backyard. Ready to check out this historic gem? Call your buyers agent.
