This four-bedroom, three-bath residence spans 2,861 square feet and blends timeless historic charm with thoughtful modern upgrades, creating a warm and inviting home that is both distinctive and move-in ready. Inside, authentic pumpkin-pine floors, tall windows, and carefully preserved architectural details evoke the home's rich history, while an open, light-filled floor plan seamlessly connects the living spaces.
