Inside the home
This 1890 brick two-storey has more original character than most century homes in the area. The main floor millwork — columns, baseboards, door casings, and crown moulding — is largely intact and in good shape. Hardwood floors run through the main level, and the 9-ft ceilings make the rooms feel larger than the square footage suggests. The kitchen is functional but dated. Cabinet boxes are original-era louvred style painted blue, paired with newer stainless appliances. The washer and dryer sit inside the kitchen footprint, which is a real-world limitation. The rear sunroom is a practical bonus space with a wood stove, but it reads as a 1960s-era addition with drop ceilings and panelled walls. The lot includes a detached garage, rear driveway access, and a fully planted backyard with artificial turf. Both bathrooms are on the main floor — the full bath has a clawfoot tub and separate shower. Upstairs has three bedrooms. A buyer who values period detail over modern finishes will find a lot to work with here.
