Property Description
Nestled in a quiet and established neighborhood, this lovingly maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is a true gem, originally built in 1931 as part of the iconic Sears Catalog homes. Combining vintage charm with approximately $140K in modern upgrades since 2000, this property offers the perfect blend of character and contemporary comfort.
Key Features:
Vintage Elegance: Wood floors run throughout the home, providing a warm and inviting feel in every room. High ceilings and classic architectural details maintain the charm of this 1930s Sears Barringer Model catalog home.
Spacious Family Living: The main floor includes a cozy living room and a generous family room addition, ideal for entertaining or relaxing. Large windows allow natural light to flood the home, highlighting its timeless beauty.
Updated Kitchen: The bright, upgraded kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances, sleek countertops, and custom cabinetry, offering plenty of storage and prep space for the home chef.
Private Primary Suite: The primary bedroom is a true retreat, complete with a walk-in closet and an en-suite full bathroom for added privacy and convenience.
Additional Bedrooms: Three additional well-sized bedrooms, all with ample closet space, share a second full bath, making this home perfect for a growing family or for hosting guests.
Unfinished Basement: The full basement is ready for your personal touch. With plenty of space for storage, a workshop, or future finishing of the rough-in bath, the possibilities are endless.
Outdoor Space: The backyard offers plenty of space for outdoor enjoyment, with room for gardening, play or future entertaining or even expansion of the home’s footprint. Additional rear lot with 10,640 sq ft included in sale. Total sq ft is 21,280.
A Piece of History with Modern Comforts: While this home preserves its historical Sears catalog charm, the modern updates make it a move-in-ready, functional space that suits today's lifestyle. The bright natural light, upgraded finishes, and thoughtful layout create a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout.
