Property Description

This is a rare opportunity to own a restored 1913 Craftsman bungalow with extensive infrastructure improvements expected in a modern home.An open front porch leads into a tile foyer, alongside a half bath. The main living space offers a large living room open to a formal dining room and office. The kitchen was completely rebuilt with a banquette eating area.Extensive restoration work was completed throughout the home, with original flooring, woodwork and hardware carefully stripped and refinished and custom-crafted replacements created to match the home's original character and architectural details. Wood flooring was replaced in the office and one upper-level bedroom.The upper-level bathroom was redesigned with clawfoot tub, heated floor, and compact washer and dryer. A ¾ bath and cedar sauna were added on the lower level. The front porch was reconfigured to create a foyer, office, half bath, and front deck with five new windows installed on the front of the home. The home offers three bedrooms on one level all with closets.Significant infrastructure improvements include replacement of all plumbing, approximately 95% of the electrical wiring, installation of hardwired smoke detectors, and replacement of previous attic insulation with new insulation. Recent improvements include furnace and air conditioning with many new ducts (2021), water heater (2021), refrigerator (2022), induction range (2022), dishwasher (2022), and upper-level washer and dryer (2022).A 10 panel solar power system offsets electricity expenses by generating 3.8-4 megawatts per year. The detached garage includes a dedicated 220V/50A electrical connection, ideal for EV charging, workshop equipment, or hobby use.Outside, the back yard is fenced and includes a garden shed. Arborvitae, apple, crabapple, chokecherry, Korean fir, balsam, and black spruce trees have been planted along with red currant shrubs.Few homes offer this level of restoration where historic character has been preserved with authenticity while supporting modern living throughout. The result is a timeless home ready to be appreciated for generations to come.
