Property Description
Welcome to 1537 W Church St, a rare 1920s gem offering timeless elegance and striking curb appeal. From the majestic natural stone chimney and architectural eyebrow dormer, this home captivates from the moment you arrive.
Step inside to a welcoming living room featuring original hardwood floors and a statement river-stone fireplace. Entertaining is a joy in the formal dining room, detailed with classic wainscoting and crown molding. The heart of the home is the sun-drenched kitchen, offering abundant oak cabinetry, a built-in planning desk, and a spectacular vaulted breakfast nook crowned with arched transom windows. A door opens directly onto an expansive, low-maintenance composite back deck—perfect for summer barbecues and indoor-outdoor living. For quieter moments, retreat to the classic screened-in side porch with its rich beadboard ceiling.
The main level also features a dedicated home office/den with gleaming hardwoods and a convenient half bath. Upstairs, you will find bright, comfortable bedrooms, including a unique room highlighted by the distinctive eyebrow window and charming sloped ceilings. The updated full bathroom provides a touch of luxury with custom ceramic tile, a glass-enclosed tub/shower, and an integrated vanity tower for ample storage.
Outside, the large paved driveway offers generous parking and leads to a spacious, detached 2-car garage featuring architectural details that perfectly complement the main house.
This beautifully maintained property masterfully blends historic craftsmanship with modern amenities. Don't miss your chance to make it yours!
The furnace with central air are brand new, the roof is only about 7 years old, the deck is trex and only 10 years old. The basement is dry with an installed drainage system.
