Restoration Background: This historic gem was lovingly preserved in the 1980s by the parents of the owners, with the goal of maintaining its original charm while modernizing for comfort. Those updates included replacing the wiring, plumbing, installing the baths and kitchen, enclosing the back porch and much more. New metal roof installed in 2017. Central heat was installed and later replaced by propane units for better energy conservation by zoning the rooms being used. Since the owners retired, less rooms were being used. Window AC units were used for energy conservation and personalized temperature control. Sold as is, including the outbuildings that could be removed or repaired at the buyer's option. Home is on well and septic, with public water available at the street.
