Inside, you'll find stunning original hardwood flooring with decorative inlaid patterns, an intricately carved staircase and banister, and beautifully detailed dining room beams and door trim.

The updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances and newer stone countertops, blending modern convenience with the home's historic appeal. The second floor offers three spacious bedrooms and a full bathroom featuring striking cobalt blue square tile flooring and a Jacuzzi tub. The oversized primary bedroom overlooks the front of the home and showcases beautiful original wood built-ins, while the rear bedroom offers its own private outdoor sitting terrace. Additional space awaits on the unfinished third floor, where soaring ceiling heights provide exceptional storage potential. The basement includes a dedicated laundry area with washer and dryer. Outside, enjoy a spacious fenced backyard shared with the adjacent residence, along with a two-car garage where one of the two spaces is assigned to this unit.
