The kitchen is the clear standout — white shaker cabinets stacked to the ceiling, a farmhouse sink, gas range, and a large LG French-door fridge, all opening to the dining area through a peninsula with bar seating. The main floor flows well and gets good light.
The bedrooms are small by modern standards, and the front porch railing and deck boards need attention. The basement is a full 856 sq ft footprint but sits at a low 5'9" ceiling height — useful for storage and laundry, but not a finishing candidate without significant work.
Out back, a new cedar deck steps down to an interlock patio inside a fully fenced yard. A detached garage at the rear of the lot adds storage and fits one vehicle. The attic reportedly offers 600 sq ft of standing room — a genuine long-term opportunity if the permits and structure support it.
