Built in 1920 and restored down to the studs in a roughly $400,000 renovation, this American Foursquare pairs the character of a century-old home with the systems of a brand-new one — four bedrooms, four full baths, and about 3,000 square feet of light-filled, open-concept living. Homes like this don't come along often.
The home is laid out across three finished levels in classic Foursquare form. The main floor is open and connected — an entry foyer and staircase flow into a formal living room, a dining area, and the kitchen, with a full bath and a flexible main-level room that works as a bedroom or home office. Upstairs are the primary bedroom, additional bedrooms, the renovated baths, and a dedicated laundry room right where you need it.
At the center of the home is the chef's kitchen: custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, and an oversized island built for gathering, with stainless appliances and a walk-in pantry. New flooring runs throughout, and large windows keep the open plan full of natural light. The designer finishes carry the same elevated, considered feel from room to room.
The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and a private, spa-inspired bath — one of a full set of renovated bathrooms finished with marble and modern fixtures. Above the bedroom level, a large third-floor loft sits under vaulted ceilings, giving you a generous bonus space for a studio, guest quarters, or a quiet retreat. Down below, the full stone-and-rock basement offers plenty of room for storage and the home's mechanicals.
Outside, the restoration continued. A brand-new covered front porch anchors the street-facing elevation, and out back a new deck steps down to a new patio and a fenced, tree-lined yard with a gazebo. It's easy outdoor living with space to relax and entertain.
What sets this restoration apart is everything you can't see. Taken to the studs and rebuilt, the home has a new roof, new windows, and all-new electrical, plumbing, and ductwork, plus dual HVAC systems — two furnaces and two air conditioners — and a new water heater. High-speed internet and cable are available at the home, and there's no HOA. It's the craftsmanship of a 1920 home with the peace of mind of new construction.
