Every once in a while, you walk into a home that completely wins you over, and this is one of those homes. Its older bones may tell part of the story, but you would never guess what is waiting inside. Approximately three years ago, the owners gutted and thoughtfully rebuilt nearly every inch, including but not limited to new double-hung windows, Alpine LVP flooring, walls, ceilings, insulation (plus heat tape for snow management), appliances, electrical panel, and furnace. Even the type of window was considered carefully, with upstairs selections opening from the inside for the ability to clean them without having to get up on a ladder! The driveway was also re-graveled. The result is a home that feels fresh and well cared for while still overflowing with warmth, charm, and personality. The main floor offers a bright kitchen, a spacious full bathroom, and a cozy living room filled with natural light. Upstairs you’ll find one bedroom along with a versatile loft that could serve as an office, reading nook, hobby area, or additional living space...the choice is yours! The art of the interior archways were crafted by the seller’s own hand, and the wood accent over the corrugated metal wall near the back entrance was salvaged from an original outbuilding once located on the property. It's those small details that give this home a character all its own. The charm continues outdoors across a peaceful double lot. Mature trees create a beautiful canopy of shade, apple trees add a little sweetness, and the meticulously maintained yard feels like your own private park. Wildlife abounds including turkeys, deer, and a myriad of bird species all to be taken in from your dreamy front porch while you sit and sip your coffee. Around the back of the house we have a beautiful stone fire pit for enjoying summer nights and entertaining. The yard is complete with a new shed that is reinforced for the winter snow load. This home may be modest in size, but it absolutely leaves an unforgettable impression. The photos just simply cannot capture how special it feels in person. You truly need to be present to understand why it is so easy to fall in love with.
