Charming Turn-of-the-Century Home on a Quiet Corner Lot - A Rare Find! Welcome to this beautifully maintained, character-rich residence set on a quiet corner lot in a highly sought-after neighborhood with top-rated schools and quick access to vibrant downtown areas. Steeped in timeless Turn-of-the-Century charm, the home features exquisite original millwork throughout-detailed trim around windows, doors, and baseboards-adding warmth and sophistication to every room. The living room showcases elegant pocket doors, a classic architectural detail that enhances the home's old-world charm. The main level includes a versatile bedroom/flex room with private access to a full bathroom and a separate exterior entrance, offering endless possibilities for today's lifestyle needs. Use it as an in-law suite, home office, study, or guest space. A well-designed laundry room/pantry on the main level provides excellent storage and convenience with easy access to the washer (2019) and dryer (2022). Upstairs, generously sized bedrooms offer comfort and flexibility for growing families. A standout architectural feature is the dual staircase-one at the front and one at the rear of the home-adding classic appeal and everyday convenience. Additional storage can be found in the large attic, accessible by a pull-down ladder. The basement is two-thirds finished, creating extra living or recreation space, while the remaining area serves as a functional workshop and storage zone. The detached two-car garage also includes a dedicated rear workshop, perfect for hobbies, tinkering, or additional storage needs. Outdoor living is equally inviting. The fully fenced backyard provides privacy for pets, play, or gardening, while the enclosed back porch-surrounded by beautiful six-foot panoramic glass windows-offers a sun-filled, peaceful retreat for morning coffee or evening relaxation year-round. Lovingly cared for by the same family since 1969, this home is ready for its next chapter. Kitchen has a reverse osmosis water purification system and home owned whole house water softener (2022). Recent improvements include a 2022 roof, newer dishwasher, and a brand-new A/C (1 unit 07/2025), two new garage door openers (09/2025). The electrical system has been city inspected, updated and approved, the HVAC system has been professionally inspected and confirmed in good order, and the carpets have been professionally cleaned. Don't miss this truly special property that blends history, comfort, and charm-all in an exceptional location near outstanding schools and local amenities.
