This 2-story gem blends historic character with modern updates, featuring 3 bedrooms, 1.1 baths, gorgeous hardwoods, fantastic built-ins, and classic Craftsman details. The open, updated kitchen is great for entertaining, and the main-level washer/dryer is a rare bonus in these beauties. Enjoy the added-on back porch for extra living space (hello, sunny coffee mornings or cozy Netflix nights!), and a spacious primary bedroom with a perfect nook for an office, den, or dream closet. Updated and gorgeous upstairs bathroom with a soaking tub. Don't be fooled, there are hardwoods under the upstairs new carpet. Backyard has privacy fence for a perfect oasis. This home has been lovingly maintained and updated! All nestled in a neighborhood known for its legendary front porch culture—bring your rocking chair and waving hand!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
