## Description

### Agent Description
Almost two-thirds of an acre with a LARGE yard! Two garages with new electrical boxes, 5 total work bays a total of 3 overhead doors on 0.62 acres in town! That's room for multiple vehicles, perfect for car enthusiasts, hobbyists, or anyone needing extra storage or workshop space. The beautifully crafted 1904 home is full of original character, including built-ins with architectural colonnades, original hardwood floors, and a period leaded-glass entry door. Three spacious bedrooms feature new carpet, with one conveniently located on the main floor. The house has been freshly painted inside and out, and updates include Pella windows and a remodeled kitchen, both completed in 2021. Also a 2023 Cub Cadet with 46 inch cut and snow blade package included with acceptable offer. Come take a look!
