Beautiful Home AND Detached Full Apartment-Accessory Dwelling Unit! This is your country oasis yet in the middle of everything on the west side! Completely updated throughout 17 years of ownership, this 1912 West side farmhouse charmer proudly sits high on well over half an acre! Truly one of a kind in the entire area! With 3 beds, 2.5 bath, and over 2700 finished SF, updated throughout and complete with the quintessential wrap around porch, huge yard, and hardwood floors to die for! It also boasts a detached Guesthouse/ADU w/ full apartment and all amenities! It has an extra large heated and cooled 2 stall garage! Baths and the kitchen have been renovated and restored to reflect the original beauty of this home! From the roof to the plumbing and electric, the insulation, and especially the HVAC you will love the turnkey nature of this house. The hardwood floors have been lovingly restored, beautiful trim throughout, original doors and hardware, with all newer windows letting in tons of light. The living, dining, kitchen, and family/playroom are spacious and also cozy. The kitchen is an absolute dream with exposed beams and subway tile surround, and lovely custom cabinetry. The bedrooms upstairs are also generously sized. It has a walkup attic with tons of storage, a whole house vacuum, and a huge rec room in the basement, with full bath and another large storage area and generous laundry area. There is not a space in this home that the owner has not optimized for better living. The yard really is the best, with underground sprinkling, a basketball court, the coolest treehouse/playset, and tons of lawn space besides, with lovely perennial gardens surrounding, and mature sugar maples ready to be tapped! Apartment has 2 smaller bedrooms, a full bath, and is approximately 700 Finished SF and is not included in the listing Square Footage or bed and bath count.
