REDUCED! Historic charm, front-porch living, and downtown at your doorstep! Built in 1900, this darling Craftsman style home is full of character and thoughtfully updated for today's lifestyle. Best of all, you're just one block from Van Alstyne's shops, restaurants, coffee shops, and nail salon, making it easy to enjoy everything downtown has to offer. The 37 foot long front porch is made for porch swings, morning coffee, and lingering evenings with friends. Prefer a little more privacy? The 13' x 11' screened-in side porch is the perfect retreat for relaxing or entertaining. Inside, original charm meets modern updates with beautifully refinished original wood floors (Sept. 2026), new wood flooring in the living room (Sept. 2026), cedar-planked ceiling, farmhouse sink, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, updated bathrooms, and heated bathroom floors. Newer windows were added in 2021. The spacious primary bedroom offers a 15' x 9' bonus room, ideal for a home office, dressing room, reading nook, nursery, or creative space. A 33 foot long carport provides plenty of covered parking. Bonus storage unit has plenty of space to hold lawn mower, tools and gardening supplies. If you've been looking for a home with personality, outdoor living space, walkability, and the kind of charm they just don't build anymore, you've found it!
