Property Description
Welcome to a beautifully preserved piece of history! This 1897 farmhouse is filled with warmth, character, and thoughtful updates—making it a rare find. Nestled on nearly half an acre, this home has been lovingly maintained by just three families in its 125+ year history. The original owners, the Bussard family, were among the founding farmers who sold their land to develop the neighborhood—giving this home deep local roots and a rich story to tell.
Inside, you'll find incredible storage throughout:
* Cedar-lined closets in two bedrooms
* A 13-foot custom walk-in closet in the primary bedroom
* Built-in cabinetry in the dining room, living room, and upstairs den (or 4th bedroom)
* A coat closet in the living room, complete with a large hidden space beneath the back stairs
The **large eat-in kitchen** offers plenty of room for gatherings, featuring a pantry cabinet and generous storage. With a **circular main-floor layout**, the home flows easily from room to room, making entertaining effortless. Upstairs, the bedrooms are spacious and inviting, with hardwood floors, solid wood doors, and wood-framed windows that overlook mature trees and gardens.
Additional highlights include:
* Two staircases leading to the upper level
* A whole-house attic fan with a custom cover
* Recessed lighting in many rooms
* A cozy living room fireplace
* A massive unfinished attic—ideal for storage or potential future living space
* A dirt cellar with gorgeous stone walls, an original fireplace, and a perfect spot for an extra fridge or freezer
Step outside and enjoy your morning coffee on the charming side porch, which cleverly hides a tool shed. The newly paved driveway runs along the property edge and opens into a large front yard, while the backyard offers:
* A 10x10 shed with a woodworking bench
* An old cistern, perfect for composting or making mulch
* Established gardens and mature trees—ideal for a swing, climbing, or simply relaxing outdoors
Located in a welcoming, tight-knit neighborhood, this home is just four blocks from Marty Snook Park home to trails, playgrounds, and community events. Families will appreciate having an elementary school right in the neighborhood, while everyone will love the quick access to Interstates 70 and 81 local parks, and shopping and dining just minutes away.
This home perfectly blends timeless historic charm with modern conveniences and invites you to become part of its story. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of local history in one of the area's most beloved and conveniently located neighborhoods!
