Calling all history buffs! Check out this newly restored and updated craftsman style historic home with tons of character. It is truly one of a kind. Home is on the National Historical Registry and located in the Benson Street- Forest Avenue Historical District. This home was built in 1916 and boasts the high ceilings we all love to see in a historical home. The original heart pine flooring has been restored with a natural oil finish, original windows, hardi plank siding, over sized rooms and living areas, the kitchen is located at the back of the home and is lined with 8 windows to allow tons of natural light in. The kitchen ceiling follows the vaulted lines of the home and has been updated with new cabinets, butcher block counters, stainless steel appliances, apron sink, and recessed lighting. The primary bath is so spacious and has been updated with two separate vanities, a free standing tub and walk in tiled shower. The house has been painted inside and out, the front porch was restored and only rotted planks were replaced, new gutters were added to protect the front porch, new plumbing installed through out including the sewer pipe to the city's main line, electrical has been updated, hvac has been serviced and is 6 years new, brand new tankless water heater, new lighting and plumbing fixtures, crawl space support beams & posts have been added. The grand front foyer welcomes any guest with original wood doors & molding, and double french doors lead you to a second hall foyer that would make a beautiful home office. Each room has it's own details, some of which include original decorative fireplaces, wainscoting, bead board, or board & baton, deep window seats, original & new shiplap, and kitchen beams show off beautiful, natural cedar ceilings. The list really goes on. So much time and love was put into this home to restore it to it's original beauty as well as blending in some updates to today's world. This was not a rushed cosmetic only renovation, maintenance items were not ignored, and we just hope that the care and appreciation we had for this historical home will shine through and bring years of memories for the next family. There is so much history here.
