Property Description

This 1936 Tudor Revival style brick features a distinctive turret entrance. The main level offers two bedrooms and a full bath, along with an updated kitchen that flows seamlessly into the dining area. French doors off the dining room open to a fenced backyard, creating an indoor-outdoor connection for entertaining and gardening. Upstairs, you’ll find a generously sized third bedroom and fourth non-conforming that makes an excellent office, guest room or flex space to fit your needs. The lower level provides a blank slate ready to be transformed into a gathering room, home gym or hobby area and includes a convenient three-quarter bath. Improvements include a new roof and gutters (2023), new driveway (2023), new sump pump motor with battery backup (2025) and radon mitigation with sealed crawlspace (2025). Complete with a detached two-car garage, this classic Tudor offers character, functional space, and plenty of natural light.
