Property Description
Built in 1939, this vintage gem is brimming with character and solid craftsmanship. You'll feel the charm of a home that has stood the test of time with its sturdy stone-and-brick basement walls and thoughtful details like original glass door knobs. The sun-filled living room invites you to take in the sweeping mountain views and breathtaking sunsets, best enjoyed beside the crackling wood-burning fireplace. The home's versatile layout is currently set up as two apartments-a 2BR/1BA and a 1BR/1BA-offering endless possibilities. Use it as a guest or in-law suite, create space for independent teens, or reimagine it as one spacious home filled with history and heart. Downstairs, you'll find a handy workshop space, while throughout the home modern updates like double-pane insulated windows and a ramp for easy main-level access. Living in town means everything is at your fingertips. Stroll to local shops, restaurants, the post office, or Murphy schools. Enjoy the ease of city services like trash pickup, snow removal, bus transit, and the bonus of fiber optic internet for staying connected. A rare blend of vintage charm, practicality, and location-this is in-town living at its very best!
