Charm, character and a few unexpected surprises await in this 1936 home! Bathed in natural light and filled with the craftsmanship that makes homes of this era so special, you’ll find original oak hardwood floors, rounded archways, ceiling coving, built-in corner hutches in the dining room and a homey living room fireplace that creates an inviting focal point. But some of the best surprises are upstairs. Of the home’s 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, two bedrooms are on the upper level, including the primary bedroom with something you might not expect in a home of this era—a walk-in closet and direct access to the full bath, which also serves the second bedroom. Built-ins and additional closets provide an impressive amount of upstairs storage. Back on the main floor, another bedroom, full bath, plus a separate den or office offers flexible space for working from home, hobbies or whatever fits your lifestyle. While the character may be timeless, many of the home’s essentials are anything but old. Vinyl siding and vinyl windows throughout offer ease of maintenance, while the washer, dryer, water softener, range and refrigerator are all six years old or newer. The furnace and central air were replaced in 2023. Looking for even more space? The lower level offers an opportunity to expand the home’s finished living area and potentially create a larger bathroom if desired. The roughed-in bathroom includes an existing toilet that is not currently in service. Step outside to a fenced, private backyard surrounded by mature landscaping, including colorful hydrangeas, hostas and stately trees—including a beautiful maple. A concrete patio offers a great spot for bonfires, relaxing evenings and outdoor entertaining.The detached double garage is conveniently located just across the alley. There’s something special about Maple Street, where mature trees stretch overhead to create an umbrella-like canopy and vintage streetlights add to the neighborhood’s charm. This highly desirable, walkable neighborhood puts Noonan’s Park and playground just a short stroll away, where ducks and geese add to the scenery during the warmer months and the skating rink brings winter fun when the seasons change. Professional interior photos forthcoming.
