Offering more than 1,250 finished square feet, this charming all-brick semi-detached home blends timeless character with thoughtful updates while giving you the financial advantages of owning both the home and the land beneath it. Thoughtfully improved over the years, the home features stylish luxury plank flooring throughout all three finished levels (2022), new kitchen cabinetry (2022), a beautifully remodeled upstairs bathroom (2019), replacement HVAC (2015), a low-slope roof (2020), three replacement main-level windows (2021), new front and rear entry doors (2025), a concrete driveway (2018), and numerous plumbing improvements.
