Timeless character meets thoughtful updates in this absolutely charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home just minutes from the hospital and Meeker schools. With 1,335 square feet of finished living space showcasing beautiful original fir trim and hardwood floors, this home offers craftsmanship and personality that's increasingly hard to find.

Lovingly renovated while preserving its historic character, you'll appreciate restored leaded glass double-hung windows, original doors, knobs, and trim, along with custom inset cabinetry and an inviting open staircase. Every room offers unique details and quality finishes that set this home apart.

Natural light from windows on every side of the main level, while daylight windows make the finished lower level feel bright and welcoming. The custom upstairs bath, completed in 2016, complements the beautifully updated kitchen featuring handcrafted inset cabinetry and like-new 2016 gas range and refrigerator.

The nearly fully finished basement adds exceptional living space with a family room featuring a cozy gas stove, third bedroom, finished laundry room, and distinctive glass block shower. Major improvements provide peace of mind, including a new roof and gutters (2025), fresh exterior paint (2025), and central air added in 2016.

Outside, enjoy multiple outdoor living spaces with an open front porch, a mudroom entrance from the driveway-side deck and a private rear wood deck perfect for relaxing. The spacious side yard offers plenty of room for gardening or play, could easily be fenced, and even includes an established asparagus patch.

A 1 1/2-car garage, built in 2002, completes the package. Homes with this level of character, craftsmanship, and thoughtful updating rarely come to market. Schedule your showing today as this one is sure to capture hearts quickly! Seller will review offers by June 15th at noon.
