About this home

If walls could talk they would whisper about the laughter and smiles of family and friends who visited here. This home, with a charming vestibule, gorgeous hardwood floors, generous ceiling height and two fireplaces is in the desirable McIntire District just a short stroll to historic landmarks, restaurants, quaint shops and museums. The first floor includes a spacious living room, a formal dining room with a built-in cabinet, an eat-in kitchen with a pantry, a convenient full bath, and a study with built in shelves providing a quiet place to work or read. Upstairs is the primary bedroom with a walk-in closet, two additional bedrooms, a family room, and a full bath with double sinks and walk-in shower. The house was relocated to its current location in 1946 and sits on a modern basement with laundry and workshop areas. The property includes a tankless hot water system and 4 mini-split AC units. The new roof (2021) and a new Carrier furnace (2024) ensures new owners have peace of mind.
