This 2.5-story Dutch Colonial is more than just a house; it is an opportunity for a savvy buyer to gain immediate equity in a prime location. Architectural Elegance Meets Modern Potential The exterior immediately impresses with its iconic gambrel roof, crisp white siding, and a magnificent, mature Magnolia tree that anchors the front yard. Inside, you’ll find the kind of craftsmanship rarely seen in modern builds: • Grand Entry: A striking foyer featuring a dramatic, dark-stained curved staircase. • Warm Living Spaces: A front-to-back living room with rich hardwood floors and a classic brick fireplace, now enhanced with a wood-burning stove for cozy winter evenings. • Character-Rich Den: A stunning home office or den featuring original knotty pine paneling, built-in bookshelves, and wide-plank wood flooring. • Chef’s Foundation: The spacious kitchen has already been tastefully updated with white shaker cabinets, butcher block countertops, a peninsula with seating, and a modern green subway tile backsplash. The "Value-Add" Advantage This property is being sold AS-IS, which is your greatest advantage. We have priced this home to reflect the need for cosmetic updates in the bathrooms (including peeling paint and older fixtures). Instead of paying a premium for someone else’s design choices, you save significantly upfront, allowing you to invest your budget into custom finishes that reflect your personal style. Outdoor Oasis The property sits on a lush 0.24-acre lot with tiered landscaping that creates a private sanctuary. From the paved driveway and stone retaining walls to the charming gazebo tucked away on the hill, the backyard is ready for summer entertaining and relaxation. Key Specifications: • Layout: 3 Bedrooms / 2.5 Bathrooms (2 full baths upstairs; half-bath/laundry on the main floor). • Size: Approximately 2,300 sq. ft. of living space plus a full basement. • Systems: Central Air Conditioning, natural gas heat, and updated stainless steel appliances. • Parking: Attached garage plus a spacious driveway. A Note to Buyers and Professionals: Experience the satisfaction of reviving a classic home in a historic district.
