Property Description

There's something inherently honest about a home that arrived in pieces on a train car 70 years ago. This 1950s Sears & Roebuck house has been thoughtfully reimagined to honor its roots while embracing a clean, modern vibe. A full renovation in 2021 stripped away the dated layers and rebuilt the home into something that feels both intentional and enduring-inside and out, completely finished.From the moment you step inside, the feeling is immediate: familiar, settled, and easy. Vaulted ceilings lift the main living spaces, while original hardwood floors bring warmth and continuity. A fireplace anchors the living area, and the enclosed four-season porch extends the home in a way that feels natural, not added on. Every space flows with purpose, creating a layout that lives effortlessly.Set on 1.5 acres, the property opens up in all the right ways. The fenced backyard reads like a private park-mature trees overhead, a deck ready for grilling, and a fire pit area that invites gathering year-round. The detached two-car garage includes workshop space, and a charming outbuilding offers flexibility as a playhouse or garden shed.Behind the scenes, everything has been addressed-roof, windows, and efficient heat pump split systems mean comfort without compromise. The full basement is clean, dry, and well-organized, with laundry and updated mechanicals.This is what turnkey is supposed to feel like: a home with history, brought fully forward, where nothing is left undone.
